Faiveley Plast changes its name and
becomes FaiveleyTech

By
The editorial staff
-

The Faiveley Plast Group is evolving through a new unifying identity. This change celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Faiveley family's first acquisition of a plastics company, and above all, 30 years of investment and development of a recognized international group with strong and complementary expertise. It also marks the transition to a new generation of family shareholders.
The Faiveley Plast Group has now become "FaiveleyTech, Manufacture for a sustainable future". It is asserting itself as a resource and expert entity for all its partners and customers in the Industry, Beauty and Health sectors.

Change your name to better evolve and reinvent yourself

Over the past thirty years, Faiveley Plast has acquired a large number of sites, tools and skills, making it an entity with a wide range of expertise and skills. " We wanted to mark this move upmarket, and express through our name our added value in terms of engineering and innovation in the fields of digital technology and eco-responsibility. Our new name, FaiveleyTech, brings together all of our brands, pooling our many skills and giving us new visibility with our customers and partners. "explains Nicolas Alloin, President of FaiveleyTech.
The change of name also marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Group, with a transition in its shareholder base and a new generation of the Faiveley family at the helm. This is the seventh generation to be involved in its management. FaiveleyTech is entering a new chapter and announcing a new ambition, both industrial and human.

A name chosen collectively thanks to everyone's involvement4

Over the past thirty years, Faiveley Plast has acquired a large number of sites, tools and skills, making it an entity with a wide range of expertise and skills. " We wanted to mark this move upmarket, and express through our name our added value in terms of engineering and innovation in the fields of digital technology and eco-responsibility. Our new name, FaiveleyTech, brings together all of our brands, pooling our many skills and giving us new visibility with our customers and partners. "explains Nicolas Alloin, President of FaiveleyTech.
The change of name also marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Group, with a transition in its shareholder base and a new generation of the Faiveley family at the helm. This is the seventh generation to be involved in its management. FaiveleyTech is entering a new chapter and announcing a new ambition, both industrial and human.

The new name was chosen by the teams of the group's companies, by the Executive Committee and by the historical shareholder family. At each site, a working group made up of employees from different departments considered possible names, voted on them and took a position. " One point was non-negotiable: we wanted to keep the Faiveley name, because our history and our specificity as a family business are important to us. This human family connection anchors us in a continuity and durability that make sense. "notes Nicolas Alloin.
The addition of "Tech" brings the "technology" aspect, but also a nod to the "French Tech", to position itself on the ambition of a reindustrialization of France. " We are convinced that France can and must reindustrialize. Our country has great development potential. Our part in this ambition is to broaden FaiveleyTech's know-how, to go beyond the processing of raw materials, and to move towards the development of complex products, using global approaches. "
The baseline "Manufacture d'avenir durable" is rooted in tradition as well as in a responsible future, in every respect. It marks a continuity between the past and the future. The word "manufacture" connotes historical know-how, involvement and application in the work. The notion of a sustainable future evokes current environmental considerations, as well as a desire to maintain jobs by maintaining and developing technical and innovative expertise. The blue white and red color codes are maintained. On the web, the group will display the banner of France through an address in ".fr" to position itself as a French company.

A new name and an evolution towards more fluidity in-house

In adopting the FaiveleyTech brand, the Group has decided to stop using the old names of the sites and companies it has integrated over the years. The sites will bear the name of the city in which they are located: FaiveleyTech Orgelet (ex-VPI), FaiveleyTech Annecy (ex-Eudica), FaiveleyTech Bourgoin (ex-Sepal), etc.
These new names are all opportunities to mark a strong territorial anchoring and an involvement in local life.
There is no longer any question of divisions, and this is the purpose of the change of name: a gathering under a single brand. The pooling of resources is being achieved through the creation of three Business Units, each covering the group's areas of expertise - Industry, Beauty and Health - and cross-functional services such as human resources, finance and purchasing.

"Our goal is for each Business Unit to benefit from the best practices of each other, to share and increase skills in all areas, for a collective evolution and emulation beneficial to all," explains Nicolas Alloin, President of FaiveleyTech.
The Industry, Beauty and Healthcare Business Units each have their own points of excellence:

  • Digital technologies and highly automated processes for industry,
  • Agility, creativity and virtuous materials for beauty,
  • Quality performance, traceability and control of health risks.
    " We put the points of excellence of each other at the service of the others. The fact that we are in three different fields is a real added value, because the problems and needs are transversal. The bridges between these sectors are opportunities to evolve and innovate. "underlines Nicolas Alloin.

Transversality and transparency: two keys to FaiveleyTech's evolution

For partners and client companies, the reorganization into Business Units will bring transparency to internal processes and increased international competitiveness. As each plant has its own expertise, customers' projects will benefit from the pooling of resources. Customers will be able to discuss their projects with a FaiveleyTech contact person, who will propose manufacturing at one or more sites with specific expertise, with an approach that is both
global and unified.

" In this new era of FaiveleyTech, we want each site to bring its own
contribution to the rise in competence of all. It's an increase in power
that unites all our teams around a single strategic vision. Our
employees want to take their place in a strong group, with ambitions and a sense of belonging.
with tangible resources. We also rely heavily on teamwork and
synergies: it's a choice we made a long time ago, but we're going to
We want to expand and accelerate the process to make everyone want to get involved. We want to
create added value for our customers, but also and above all create pride for our employees.
teams. "

Since January 2022, FaiveleyTech's development has also been supported by a BPI gas pedal. This support is scheduled to last 18 months. It will support a shared approach to project management, enabling plants to enhance their skills. The first areas to be addressed are the foundations of a multi-business unit organization, support services for operations and innovation.
The transition to FaiveleyTech is more than just a name change. It is the result of a new vision for the Group, which aims to make sense for both its employees and its customers. With this change, FaiveleyTech aims to build loyalty among its employees, facilitate their skills development and also attract new talent, a major challenge for industrial companies today.

Deciphering a new brand signature

FaiveleyTech is a single word, for one entity. Its upper/lower case spelling enhances legibility, in a guideline of humility. The choice of the word "Manufacture" as a baseline reflects this spirit of simplicity, anchoring in the past and paying tribute to the involvement and application of all the Group's players, at all levels. Keeping the name "Faiveley" was also a prerequisite. The "i", with its
connection between the bar and the point, symbolizes the injection point of a plastic part,
core business of the ETI. The addition of "Tech" marks the importance of technology and
technology, and positions the group in a claimed industrial framework. "Tech"
connotes innovation and the future, and more precisely an optimistic and eco-responsible future, as the rest of the baseline states through the expression "sustainable future". The idea of looking to the future is also symbolized by the italics, like a dynamic momentum. Finally, the color code blue white red underlines FaiveleyTech's pride and ambition to make France shine, nationally and internationally.

Get to know the FaiveleyTech Group better

FaiveleyTech is an international group of French origin, specializing in high value-added plastic injection molding for the demanding, selective and/or normative markets of Industry, Beauty and Health. It is headed by Executive Chairman Nicolas Alloin and the Faiveley family, which is a shareholder in Faiveley Transport-Wabtec, the world leader in rail equipment, and has also owned Domaine Faiveley since 1825.

Gattefossé & CTIBiotech develop the first connected chip to measure bioimpedance in 3D bioprinted skin

Sebum is a complex mixture of lipids secreted by sebocytes and deposited in the stratum corneum to contribute to the skin's barrier function. Disruption of sebum production is associated with skin conditions such as acne or atopic dermatitis, and also affects the appearance and beauty of the skin, contributing to the development of oily or dry skin.

Confirmation in vivoIn vitro testing of efficacy in healthy volunteers remains a critical stage, with a high failure or disappointment rate. This is why cosmetics laboratories continue to search for the most relevant biological markers, and to develop test methods that will enable them to assess the efficacy of their products. in vitro fast, easy to install, robust and.., in fine, as predictive as possible.

Gattefossé and CTIBiotech have joined forces to develop a 3D bio-printed model of the skin incorporating sebocytes, which can be used to measure the following parameters in vitro non-invasive measurement techniques in vivo and experimental laboratory data.

Bioimpedance (or bioelectrical impedance analysis) has long been used to monitor changes in our body fat mass, making it a personalized indicator for monitoring our health at home (bathroom scales). Using connected tools, Gattefossé and CTIBiotech have used bioimpedance to assess changes in the local environment of a 3D skin model incorporating sebocytes. Measuring such non-invasive electrical activity enabled real-time monitoring of sebum production, alongside laboratory analyses of the model's cellular, matrix and tissue development.

Bio-impedance has long been used in our bathroom scales and by dieticians to understand overall body composition. Applying this technique to the skin is an obvious step forward, but the real innovation lies in the development of real-time analysis of sebum changes. We have perfected our 3D-printed full-skin models with an integrated bio-impedance chip connected to monitor changes. By linking cosmetics screening in this way, we're making faster progress towards human testing and increasing our ability to make more effective products, explains Prof. Colin McGuckin, President and Scientific Director, CTIBiotech

Sebocyte-containing skin models have reproducible sebum production, which is increased by linoleic acid and decreased by Tofa. This is characterized by significant changes in bioimpedance both in the imprinted tissue and in the surrounding culture supernatants. Bioimpedance, linked to sebum production, is therefore proving to be a clean, non-invasive in vitro parameter that can be measured in real time, to design ever more predictive and effective tests: indeed, the 3D models described here and linked to a simple chip system, accurately reflect changes in both skin models and living donors.  "explains Dr. Nicolas Bechetoille, Ph.D/HDR - Head of R&D skin biology, Gattefossé

TheBetterBarrel: Schwan Cosmetics and Sulapac create a cosmetic pencil with a plant-based barrel to offer the next alternative to conventional plastic

By
The editorial staff

Schwan Cosmetics has launched the first cosmetic color pencils made with sustainable Sulapac materials. TheBetterBarrel" responds to market demand for environmentally-friendly make-up products that don't sacrifice quality, performance or style.
Schwan Cosmetics, a German supplier of make-up products to most of the world's leading cosmetics companies, and Finnish materials innovation start-up Sulapac have collaborated to create lip and eye pencils whose bodies are made from sustainable materials capable of retaining the volatile ingredients they contain.


To date, the main difficulty in using biobased materials in cosmetic pencils lies in the fact that most natural materials are not capable of holding the volatile ingredients of high-performance formulas. This is why, today, most make-up pencils are wrapped in virgin plastic.
The pencils were designed in response to market research into the changing demands of Generation Z and Millennial cosmetics consumers. According to the Deloitte Millennial survey, the importance of reconnecting with nature became evident during the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumers wanted to take care of nature and feel in touch with it. These consumers are also committed to making positive changes in their communities and the world.


Consumers will now be able to discover long-lasting, high-performance lip and eye pencils, packaged in innovative pencil barrels. The eco-friendly, hermetically sealed packaging containing the volatile ingredients is made from 72 % biobased materials, lateral wood chips and natural binders.
While sustainable materials have been implemented in beauty product packaging in recent years, this is the first time Sulapac's alternative plastic material has been used in colored cosmetic pencils.


" This is a breakthrough for us, because we've been able to invent a better material for encapsulating our pencils. This replaces virgin plastic with a material that leaves no permanent microplastics on the planet!
And we didn't have to compromise on the quality or performance of our durable, highly pigmented shades. This line is designed to come in an infinite variety of textures and colors, and the drum material must be first-rate to preserve its integrity. Through our collaboration with Sulapac, we are not only creating an innovative product for our customers, we are also investing in a more sustainable future for the cosmetics industry. We will continue to strive to make the world a little better every day." says Dr Alexander Doll, Head of Research and Development at Schwan Cosmetics.


The eco-friendly barrel was created thanks to the joint expertise of Sulapac and Schwan Cosmetics in their respective sectors. The pencil cup is made from Sulapac Flow v1.8 material, derived from sawdust from industrial by-products and plant-based binders.
Both Schwan and Sulapac place sustainability at the forefront of their values. Schwan has set itself ambitious targets such as zero net carbon emissions by 2040, as well as a product range containing 50 % less virgin fossil plastic in primary packaging and 75 % less products of natural origin by 2025.

" We have 700 customers in 70 different countries. As a global supplier to so many brands, creating more sustainable products has a significant impact on the environment in the real world. In response, our customers are increasingly demanding sustainable products, especially for their Generation Z and millennial consumers. At the same time, our customers don't want to lose selection, performance or the ability to design their products in line with their own brand. Our collaboration with Sulapac is perfect because they embody the values of preserving nature without sacrificing performance and design flexibility." says Sandra Lossau, Vice President Global Category Management at Schwan Cosmetics.
The design principle behind Sulapac is to imitate nature. Like a piece of wood on the forest floor, Sulapac materials can be digested by natural micro-organisms and decompose into carbon dioxide, water and biomass, leaving no trace behind. The company is also known for its aesthetics and performance, and has been creating sustainable materials for the beauty industry since 2016, collaborating with brands such as Chanel, Lumene and Shiseido.

" It's a joint cooperation that wouldn't have been possible without each other's expertise - we're better together. Schwan is a major international supplier to a wide range of brands worldwide. As a major player in the industry, they have a real impact on the beauty ecosystem and the environment. Sulapac's mission is to work together to save the world from plastic waste. Collaboration with industry leaders like Schwan is very important because of the huge volume they produce." says Dr Suvi Haimi, CEO and co-founder of Sulapac.


The BetterBarrel product range will be officially launched at MakeUp New York on September 14 and 15.


The campaign includes :
Xplore Superstay Eyeliner Once applied, the precision-gliding eyeliner lasts up to 17 hours - for a perfect evening look that's still as fresh as the morning. The clean, vegan eyeliner features a highly pigmented, smudge- and water-resistant formula and applies smoothly.


Rebel21 Superstay Liplinen Clean, vegan lip liner perfectly highlights lips for up to 13 hours - for long days and wild nights. Its soft, glide-on formula is lightweight and won't fade. Thanks to its tip, the lip contour is perfectly defined and the color is intense.


Sulapac is a patented, award-winning biological alternative to conventional plastics. It accelerates a future free of plastic waste with sustainable materials that are beautiful and functional. Just like nature. The Helsinki-ba- sed company was founded in 2016 by Dr. Suvi Haimi, Dr. Laura Tirkkonen-Rajasalo and Dr. Antti Parssinen. Its investors include Chanel and Sky Ocean Ventures. Sulapac has been ranked among Europe's 100 hottest startups by Wired UK in 2018, 2019 and 2021, and among the Nordic startups to watch in 2021 by Sifted, supported by the Financial Times.

Eastman supports the non-profit beauty industry association in its efforts to advance the circularity of beauty packaging.

Today, Eastman announced its membership of the non-profit organization Pact Collective. Pact is comprised of beauty industry stakeholders focused on improving the end-of-life of beauty packaging and developing solutions that promote circularity for the industry. Eastman and Pact will work together to harness Eastman's molecular recycling technologies to recycle beauty packaging that cannot be mechanically recycled and would otherwise end up in landfill or incinerated.


 " We are delighted to join Pact Collective. We share their goal of ending packaging waste in the beauty industry, and are excited to explore opportunities to leverage our molecular recycling technologies to increase beauty product recycling," said Tara Cary, Cosmetics Packaging Segment Manager at Eastman. "  Recycling challenges for the beauty industry are complex. Eastman is committed to working with the industry to find solutions for a more sustainable future. Pact Collective is positioned to bring value chain participants together to achieve concrete results. " 
Pact Collective offers both an in-store collection program and a mail-back program for hard-to-recycle beauty packaging. Pact saw Eastman as a valuable partner because of its innovative molecular recycling technologies, which offer the possibility of recycling materials that the industry can reuse in packaging.
" Pact identifies the best possible use for the materials we collect - always starting with mechanical recycling where possible. What we like about Eastman's technology is that it's true material-to-material recycling, not waste-to-energy recycling." said Mia Davis, co-founder of Pact. " Eastman can help us keep plastic in circulation, creating more recycled content that can be used in future packaging for beauty products and other items." 
Eastman is a pioneer in molecular recycling - innovative technologies that source hard-to-recycle plastic waste rather than fossil-based raw materials to create high-performance materials. These technologies divert plastic waste from landfill, giving it new life and reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared with traditional production.
Over the past 18 months, Eastman has launched two sustainable material portfolios for cosmetic packaging using its molecular recycling technologies - Eastman Cristal Renew resins with high levels of certified recycled content and Eastman Cristal One Renew resins that offer brands recycled content as well as recyclability in the municipal recycling stream. As an important next step in building the circular economy, Eastman is exploring strategic take-back programs in many of the markets it serves to create "small closed loops" such as recycled beauty packaging.
