Arcade Beauty develops its first all-PE eco-refill designed to be recyclable. A perfect illustration of Arcade Beauty's eco-design approach, the 3D Pouch generation offers a host of advantages. These L'Oréal shampoos come in the form of an all-PE eco-refill, lighter than a plastic bottle. A first for the group.

Elvive Color Vive Protective shampoo protects color-treated hair, while Dream Length shampoo cares for long, damaged hair. For its development, the brand wanted an eco-refill with low environmental impact. Arcade Beauty has therefore developed a 3D Pouch in 100 % PE, for which the brand can claim material savings of 75 % compared with 2 bottles of 250 mL shampoo. This eco-refill can be recycled in flexible PE recycling channels where the infrastructures for collection, sorting and recyclability exist locally.

Eco-innovation

Produced at one of the Group's European sites, this totally leak-proof pack comes with a choice of screw cap or service cap. Depending on format (from 30 ml to 1 liter), it is fitted with a gusset to enable it to stand upright.

Now available in single-material PP or PE (including the closure system), the 3D Pouch is part of the Group's global CSR initiative, which aims to offer 100 % of products ready for recycling by 2025.

The need for sustainable design, health requirements, digital integration, regulations... In just a few months, a combination of major factors has accelerated the redefinition of product testing in-store or at home. Across all beauty segments, brands, distributors and suppliers are working to reinvent the discovery experience, while responding to changing consumer expectations.

This is the theme of the June 2021 issue of the magazine Industries Cosmétiques. To find out more, and to understand how these issues are being taken on board by manufacturers today, we asked journalist Kristel Milet to tell us how she came up with her article...

Givaudan Active Beauty presents Zanthalene, a natural modulable active ingredient developed by green fractionation, with botox-like efficacy in modulating skin sensitivity. Created from Zanthoxylum bungeanumZanthalene, commonly known as Sichuan pepper, is a cosmetic ingredient derived from the spice and capable of acting on neuromuscular communication within the skin structure, offering aging effects and soothing benefits depending on its concentration in formulas.

All consumers eventually experience the effects of aging on the skin, such as wrinkles and sensitivity. However, many do not wish to reverse these effects through invasive treatments. 

According to a study conducted on behalf of Givaudan Active Beauty186 % of consumers are interested in beauty products containing natural ingredients that help soothe skin discomfort while smoothing it out for a botox-like effect.

Giada Maramaldi, category manager for personal care at Givaudan, said: " Each facial expression activates a large number of muscles. Over time, as collagen production declines, these expressions become even more pronounced and embedded in the skin, leading to the formation of wrinkles. To combat these effects, Zanthalene offers a neurocosmetic strategy that relaxes facial muscles in a safe, reversible and natural way, adding a feeling of comfort while eliminating skin discomfort."

Made from Sichuan pepper, a plant widely used as a spice in Asian cuisine, Zanthalene is extracted from its fruit husks using supercritical CO2. Givaudan Active Beauty claims that its efficacy has been proven in several clinical studies: at low doses (0.5 %), Zanthalene is able to reduce skin discomforts such as itching and sensitivity, bringing a soothing effect to the skin in just a few minutes.

At a higher dosage (1 %), Zanthalene shows an immediate, visible reduction in skin roughness parameters in just 30 minutes, and long-term efficacy over 30 days. The body continues to react even after regular use of the product, creating a virtuous circle of improvement.

According to Givaudan Active Beauty, zanthalene is therefore a perfect ingredient for the formulation of beauty products targeting tired skin, aiming for a refreshed appearance and an immediately visible effect.

With over 80 % of consumers willing to buy a concept formulated with botox-like active ingredients, the brand's experts came up with an inspiring marketing concept: Sensilift, a cream based on Zanthalene. Thanks to Vetivyne, Centerox and rose seed oil, which regenerate and plump the skin, this highly natural anti-aging cream is also enriched with Jambu, which energizes the skin and provides a stimulating, moisturizing, comforting and soothing effect.

Cosmetics and hormonal variations. It's a subject that doesn't come up all that often, yet it's one that affects cosmetics consumers. Menstruation, pregnancy, menopause: hormones have an influence on skin quality. Cosmetics manufacturers are beginning to incorporate this into their products. This is the Zoom of June issue of Industries Cosmétiques.

And to fully grasp what's at stake in this article, we asked journalist Kristel Milet to explain how she went about it. Listen to the podcast Cosmetalks and to read with your review n°30.

More than 120 participants gathered on July 1, 2021 to attend the 2e technical day of the year, organized by the Innov'Alliance cluster and devoted to hemp and cannabinoids. At the Palais des papes in Avignon, a succession of experts and interprofessions discussed this highly topical, high-stakes subject.

Marion Pillot and Marion Segui, the cluster's project managers, opened the day's proceedings by outlining the main themes of the event. Frédéric Favrot, Managing Director of Koppert France, then pointed out that "the Innov'Alliance cluster had a duty to take the lead in this area.

A varied lecture series

Sponsored by Koppert France, Ledeven, Richel Group, Robertet Group, Vegetal Grox Development and our distribution partners ABC Chanvre and Cosmed, the day was organized around four main themes.

The morning session focused on "Varietal selection" and "Hemp and Cannabis production". The afternoon focused on "Extraction of molecules of interest and scientific rationalization of mechanisms of action" and "Application: challenges and development of innovative products".

A call for hemp project ideas

Echoing the enthusiasm generated by this technical day, Innov'Alliance is launching a call for project ideas around hemp, for which the cluster is inviting all interested parties to come forward before September 30, 2021.

The aim is to encourage the emergence of innovative projects based on hemp and cannabinoids across the entire value chain, from raw materials to finished products, in the agricultural, cosmetics, nutraceutical and food sectors. The aim is to encourage initiatives that promote sustainable innovation in the targeted sectors, and help develop a new range of ingredients, finished products, technologies and services in response to consumer expectations.

"Cannabidiol (CBD), hemp's flagship molecule, is gaining increasing interest among the French population for its many properties. Despite the legislative grey areas that remain in this sector, the development of cosmetics, food, nutraceuticals and wellness products containing CBD or its derivatives is today an area of innovation with high stakes (production, efficacy, analysis, quality monitoring, traceability, etc.)", says Innov'Alliance.

According to the Union des Industriels pour la valorisation des extraits de chanvre (UIVEC), the market for hemp extracts in France is estimated to be worth 700 million euros in the first year in the event of regulatory changes concerning CBD-containing products.

The theme of Innov'Alliance's next day of conferences is: "Food preservation & cosmetics: similarities and levers for improvement". Join us on September 30 in Lyon! Although the two sectors have neither the same challenges nor the same products, they are currently working in parallel to improve preservation, and could be a source of inspiration for each other. The objectives of this day will be to identify the various challenges and solutions for improving preservation, and to enable the transfer of technologies and skills between the food and cosmetics sectors.

In 2021, with Phantom, Paco Rabanne goes even further to seduce a highly connected generation, revealing a stunning bottle.

PHANTOM, the very first connected and refill perfume

A major partner to the perfume industry, VPI (Faiveley Plast Beauty) is renowned for its packaging expertise.
For its latest men's fragrance, Paco Rabanne worked closely with VPI. The French company, which specializes in the injection and assembly of aesthetic plastic parts, produced the brand's spray cap, the first connected fragrance to shake up conventional practices with a surreal robot design.

A challenge for a surprising creation

VPI takes the world by surprise with its ultra-fun connected spray cap, designed to create unprecedented customer experiences. The interaction between Paco Rabanne, VPI and STMicroelectronics in the development of this atypical fragrance has enabled us to achieve the level of precision and perfection set by the brand.
This spray cap combines an attractive metallic finish with the integration of an NFC (contactless communication) microchip in the robot head, all in a 3-piece footprint for the 100ml and 150ml bottle caps. 

" For addicts, Phantom's 150 ml format is both spectacular and refillable. "says the brand. VPI and PUIG have designed a refillable system with sensory unscrewing and reassembly, guaranteeing perfect solidity and product life.

By bringing your smartphone close to the top of the bottle, you can freely discover the whole Phantom universe (games, playlists...) A welcome spray in the "Paco Galaxy" that becomes your everyday companion.
With this emblematic, high-profile launch, VPI is breaking new ground with the very first integration of a microchip in a fragrance, for an even more creative digital dimension combined with refillability. 
VPI and the Faiveley Plast Group are fully pursuing their strategy of supporting brands in their ecological and digital transition.

This highly selective production has been the subject of precise technical development for a product destined for a second life as a dressing table with a diameter of 41 cm.

Cold stamping by Wauters

site-industries-cosmetics A man holds a book with cold stamping by Wauters.

"Goldsmiths of packaging"... since 1909, gilding has been at the heart of Wauters' history. Today, this signature is expressed through a new investment and new technical and innovative know-how, opening up new perspectives in packaging.

From gold leaf to industrial innovation

Originally, Charles Wauters set up a leather gilding workshop in the Marais district of Paris: bookbinding, book covers, leather desk blotters... Charles Wauters invented his own tools, developed Fixor (for gluing gold leaf, a product still marketed by Rougier & Plé), and developed equipment at the root of today's gilding profession.

An expert in gilding, Wauters transposes and sharpens its know-how from leather to cardboard, to collaborate today with the biggest names in Perfumery, Cosmetics and Spirits on high value-added packaging.

Year after year, the company equips itself with the most precise and specific technologies, such as cylinder hot stamping combined with an embossing unit, with a machine unique in the world developed in partnership with Steuer, which enables unparalleled precision on large hot stamping areas combined with an embossing unit.

As a natural extension of this, Wauters is now developing its cold stamping offer. Cutting-edge offset... for cold gilding

Last year, Eric and Thierry Wauters (4th generation of the company) decided to invest in a new offset press for the B.Pack site in Burgundy.

This year, the Villebon-sur-Yvette site will be equipped with Heidelberg's brand-new CX 104 press, unveiled exclusively at the China Print trade show. Wauters will be the first to benefit from this new-generation offset press, which is both more efficient and more ergonomic, with its unique, intuitive console that enables even larger printing formats with a sheet size of 720 x1040 mm.

At present, this equipment is complemented by Vinfoil's Optima cold stamping (or cold lamination) module. A new stage in the company's "gilding" know-how is developing in line with Wauters' exacting standards, and towards a technicality with multiple possibilities.

Cold marking, a simplified process

While cold stamping is not intended to replace hot stamping, it is an alternative and complementary process that offers three major advantages: performance, ecology and design.

The gilding is transferred directly to the offset press.

Unlike hot foil stamping, which requires the use of a gilding iron tool, cold foil stamping is transferred via an offset plate to the substrate using glue. No need for a tool, no need to set up the substrate on a new machine - everything happens in-line on the new offset.

Cold stamping enables reprinting on the gilding film. A juice, a gradient, a four-color process, a direct-tone decoration - the design is set free. There's no need for a covering white for texts or decorations: we work in reserve, directly on the cardboard.

The technical nature of cold stamping guarantees precision, agility, flexibility and cadence... 

High-quality rendering

Overlays are made easy thanks to 100th register quality: no need to set up the board on another machine, cold lamination is carried out directly on the offset machine. Precision is the order of the day. From solids to fine fades, gradations are sublimated thanks to unrivalled stitch finesse.

Gone are the days of covering white in several passes to regain purity; the cold foil reserve can be imagined as a solid, for example, to make way for four-color process printing on the back of a pack, or with incredible finesse for text, labels or gencodes.

A CSR process

The advantages of this technology include its ecological virtues: it saves time, materials and energy. Thanks to its highly precise application, the cold stamping process reduces waste. The used film reels are then taken back by the supplier who, after a demetallization process, recycles the PET by remetallizing it for a second life. The production of gilding tools is no longer necessary, saving both materials and energy.

Performance, ecology, design: cold stamping opens up new horizons for the world of high-end packaging.
