Promens to reveal Green AirFree

The co-extruded bottle has an external recycled Polyethylene (PE) layer, made from post consumer recycled material (PCR), and an internal multi-layer pouch.

The new pack contains a barrier material, which prevents odour migration from the PCR material, and a pure PE layer that is in contact with the formula.

After the pack has been disposed of and crushed, the flakes of PE that were not in contact with the product can be separated and recycled.

The Green AirFree can be manufactured in 15ml to 500ml volume bottles and used in any position for complete evacuation of the product from the pack.

“With a restitution rate for 95% to 97%, AirFree allows exceptionally high evacuation rates,” said Promens R&D director Pascal Hennemann. “A traditional non-airless bottle with pump will evacuate only 86% of a high viscosity cream.”

The internal pouch contracts as the product is used, while the outer pack remains rigid.

Promens has targeted the pack at the pharmaceutical and personal-care markets for products such as suncare, haircare and bodycare.

The company can manufacture the pack in a single operation.
