As the doors of Paris Packaging Week are about to open, we wanted to give the floor to two manufacturers. Beryl Trentin, Sales Manager at VPI Faiveley Plast and one of its customers, Antoine Rigaud, Operations Manager at 900.care.

VPI Faiveley Plast is a specialist in plastic injection molding. Founded in 1931 and based in the Jura region of France, VPI offers solutions for closures, deosks, boxes and dispensers combining finish and functionality for the luxury goods, perfume, cosmetics and spirits markets.

900.care is a brand of refillable bathroom products: shower gel, hand foaming gel in dissolvable sticks, toothpaste in chewable tablets or deodorant in refillable sachets. Why 900? Because 900 is the average number of seconds we spend taking care of ourselves every morning and evening. Convinced that these 900 seconds should be as joyful as they are eco-friendly, the young company creates products that are good for you and good for the planet.

Latest joint innovation: a mouthwash in effervescent pastilles. After producing the shower gel cap, the refillable solid deodorant case and the toothpaste dispenser, VPI has taken on 9oo.care's latest challenge: its refillable mouthwash tablet packaging. 900.care explains: "It's a clever packaging. The tablets are stored in the body of the bottle, and the opening cap serves as a measuring cup. The user drops in a tablet, adds water and obtains a mouthwash.

VPI Faiveley Plast and 900.care have joined forces to promote responsible innovation, and are looking forward to a number of exciting encounters at the show...

The manufacturing process for the liquid form of Sweetone Bio (Schisandra sphenanthera extract) is the same as for the powder form. Only the stabilization method is different: maltodextrin for the powder form / glycerine for the liquid form.

The supply chain for schisandra berries, from which the Sweetone Bio active ingredient is extracted, is FairWild certified. This certification is awarded to ingredients derived from plants collected in the wild. It guarantees the sustainability of wild plants and human resources.

Recent innovative developments in packaging have mainly revolved around different aspects of sustainability, such as recyclability, biodegradability, compostability, refillability, reusability and the use of bio-based materials or raw materials from renewable resources. Eurofins' network of companies supports its customers' quality control and risk assessment procedures in the design, reuse and recovery of packaging, from the resin stage to the final packaging and throughout the product life cycle:

  • Regulatory and safety assessment: review of documentation, verification of compliance, assessment of container-content interaction, development of an appropriate analytical test plan.
  • Analytical tests :
    o Guarantee performance: physical, stability and mechanical tests.
    o Guaranteeing safety: analyses for toxic substances, food contact tests
    o Design for sustainability: measuring plastic content, end-of-life recovery, compostability
  • Audit and consulting: Supply chain assessment: packaging manufacturers, packaging material suppliers, support to identify and evaluate both recycling solutions and suppliers of recycled materials.

Our experts and network of internationally accredited laboratories help beauty brands and packaging suppliers meet and exceed their sustainability commitments and targets, such as improving recyclability and using recycled materials.

Groupe GM, international market leader in hospitality products, is today pleased to announce a new partnership with Phytomer.

Phytomer is the story of three generations united by the same dream: to offer skin all the benefits of the sea. For 50 years, Phytomer has been drawing on the incredible richness of the sea to offer men and women skin care products designed to reveal their full beauty. Today, the world's finest spas choose to offer their clientele the revitalizing benefits of Phytomer skin care products.

With this collaboration, Groupe GM can now offer hotel guests a new line of hospitality products inspired by the sea. Phytomer products are enriched with sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum), a plant with wonderful refreshing, relaxing and softening properties. A pure moment of well-being. Our formulas contain up to 98 % of natural ingredients. Their fragrance is inspired by the iodized freshness of the sea air, combining subtle floral notes with pleasant aquatic and woody scents.

The Phytomer range of hospitality products meets all the requirements of GM Group's Care About Earth social responsibility program. Launched in 2018, this www.groupegm.comprogramme aims to reduce the hospitality sector's impact on the environment.

This new line reaffirms Groupe GM's commitment and efforts to develop sustainable products. The products come in dark blue 30 ml tubes, made from 90 % plant-based materials. The caps are made from 100 % recycled plastic. The range includes shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion.

The Phytomer line of home care products is completed by two large-format 400 ml dispensers: Ecofill and Ghost.

Ecofill is an innovative, sustainable and eco-designed product. This patent-pending dispenser is not only eco-responsible, refillable and traceable. It's also a clean, safe, fast and easy solution with reduced environmental impact. Its 400ml sealed pouches feature low-impact packaging with only 8g of recyclable plastic, and guarantee total formula traceability. The dark blue Ecofill dispensers include shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion and liquid soap, all 100 % traceable.

As its name suggests, the Ghost dispenser hangs from an invisible rail, giving the impression that the product is floating in mid-air. This large-format 400 ml dispenser, with its ingenious ecological design, is made from sugar cane and lasts for around 40 days. The system is both safe and easy to use. The amount of product remaining is visible through a small, discreet window. Designed to blend in with the wall on which it is hung, this dispenser is supplied with a wall mounting, either with screws or double-sided adhesive, and comes with a key to enable the device to be easily removed from the wall.

The Ghost dispenser comes in white, and the bottle is made from 100 % plant-based materials. The Ghost is available for a wide range of products, including shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, liquid soap, and hair and body gel.

The range is completed by a 20g bar of soap certified RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil) and packaged in Allegro paper.

Laurent Marchand, GM Group CEO, said: " We are delighted to enter into this partnership with Phytomer, a leading brand that stands out as much for the professional quality of its cosmetics as for its innovative spirit, and which shares Groupe GM's commitment to sustainability and the environment. Phytomer already works in partnership with 10,000 spas in 80 countries, and we look forward to launching the new product line in hotels around the world. This collection of hospitality products meets all the criteria of our Care About Earth program, and we are convinced that it will meet all the expectations of our partner hotels' customers. "

The DSM-Firmenich merger will further accelerate innovation for the sector and generate new growth opportunities for its customers. It will form a new global partner to serve the food industry, combining DSM's Food & Beverage and Firmenich's Taste & Beyond businesses. Firmenich's leading global fragrance and ingredients business will be further expanded into the beauty sector with the addition of DSM's Personal Care and Flavors business. These new combined activities will be joined by DSM's highly successful Health, Nutrition & Care and Animal Nutrition & Health businesses.

The new group's extensive global footprint will provide customers with access to an unprecedented network of R&D, creative and application skills, informed by local consumer preferences, across regional and local hubs around the world.

However, a successful merger requires more than complementary capabilities or compelling financial data; it requires balanced governance and respect for the interests of all stakeholders, but above all shared values. My colleagues and I are convinced that we have all these elements, and it is for this reason that the DSM Supervisory Board has concluded that this is truly a merger in the interests of all stakeholders."

I'm convinced that for all the stakeholders of the future DSM-Firmenich, the most exciting part is yet to come. "
