Future, the single-material pump developed by Aptar Beauty, a global leader in dispensing systems for beauty brands, has won two new awards - WorldStar and PCD - for its collaboration with Dermalogica on their newest product line
cleaners.
Dermalogica x Future by Aptar was among the winners of the PCD Awards at Paris Packaging Week in the Skincare Premium category. In addition, this partnership was also honored as a winner in the Packaging Materials and Components category.
An award winner with multiple distinctions
These awards follow numerous awards received in 2022 after the launch of the
Dermalogica's skincare line. These include the prestigious Formes de Luxe Award 2022 in the Distribution System category and the AmeriStar Award 2022, which
precedes the WorldStar Awards in the "Sustainable Packaging" category. Upstream of
this collaboration, the Future omnichannel pump won an award at the 2022 Sustainability
Awards in the e-commerce category and was a finalist at the Plastics Recycling Awards Europe.
Sustainable and omnichannel solution
Together, these awards salute the sustainable and omnichannel attributes of Aptar Beauty's Future pump. The polyethylene dispensing solution is single-material and fully recyclable when combined with a PE or PET bottle.
It meets the requirements of ISTA 6 and is suitable for e-commerce thanks to its integrated locking/unlocking ring, and is equipped with an actuating device
360° free rotation which minimizes the risk of breakage during transport.
A winning collaboration
Dermalogica was the first prestige skincare brand to launch its cleanser line using Future, including Special Cleansing Gel, UltraCalming Cleanser and Clearing Skin Wash. Launching in 2021, this innovation met Dermalogica's sustainability goals, while being omnichannel and easy to carry.
The PE pump, combined with the bottle containing 50 % PCRs from Dermalogica, reinforces the brand's contributions to circularity by reducing conventional plastic and eliminating metal.
Kevin Davis, Packaging Engineering Director at Dermalogica, said, " The pump is a real game changer in terms of recyclability and single-material packaging. In addition to its sustainability benefits, Future's e-commerce-friendly design is equally important to our brand as we ship large volumes in small packages. "
Xavier Joseph, VP Global Marketing and Innovation Aptar Beauty, said, "These awards attest to the fact that Future meets the market demands of premium brands like Dermalogica. By combining durability and e-commerce compatibility, Future addresses two major needs for differentiation in the skincare market, without compromising aesthetics."
