Cosmetic 360, the international trade show for innovation in the perfume and cosmetics industry, will be held in Paris, at the Carrousel du Louvre, on October 18 and 19, 2023.
The theme of this 9th edition will be "cleantech", a group of "clean technologies" whose role is to provide a better response to today's challenges in terms of ecology and the fight against global warming: renewable energies, water cycles, biomaterials, decarbonization, the circular economy, recycling, and so on.
Improving on existing techniques, or even replacing them, cleantech's distinctive feature is that it generates innovations, particularly in industry, with added environmental value, while ensuring the competitiveness of companies.
"Our sector is taking a major turn for the better in line with the cleantech sector, which is experiencing a real acceleration in the face of environmental challenges. Once again this year, Cosmetic 360 will open up innovative and responsible avenues for the cosmetics industry, stresses Franckie Béchereau, Director of Cosmetic 360. Chis theme corresponds not only to the values of the industry, but also to those of our show.
