Febea publishes a guide to best practices for preserving biodiversity

By

For several years now, the cosmetics sector has been undergoing a profound transformation: setting up sustainable supply chains, measuring their footprint on biodiversity, reducing their environmental impact... to help the whole sector go faster and further, Febea has published a guide to best practices in the sector. It will enable all cosmetics companies, whatever their size, to draw inspiration from these experiences and deploy them on their own scale.

The Last June, Febea adopted a new raison d'être: "Taking care of you, respecting the beauty of the world". As soon as it was adopted, this raison d'être was designed to be translated into a series of concrete actions, particularly in terms of ecological transition.
Many companies in the sector have already embarked on this path, promoting biodiversity. Listing and publishing their best practices provides everyone with concrete, transferable examples capable of inspiring new actions and thus accelerating the ecological transition of the entire sector.

The "Biodiversity" guide available online from the Febea is above all practical and concrete. Divided into 7 chapters, it covers every aspect of how to help preserve biodiversity. From the creation of sustainable supply chains to the eco-design of raw materials and formulas, from logistics choices to the reuse of unsold products, each stage is the subject of a precise analysis, and above all gives pride of place to the concrete initiatives taken by companies.

Inspiring examples to inspire action

For example, Pierre Fabre has embarked on a process of valorizing co-products: to manufacture Klorane's active ingredient, it uses organic olive pomace, an effluent from olive oil production. To do this, it turned to a Greek farmer, for whom it financed the replanting of 10,000 olive trees after the 2007 fires in the Peloponnese. Another example is milk thistle oil, used in the Avène range. This is a co-product of sylimarin extraction, used in the pharmaceutical industry. The residual oil is currently being evaluated as a new cosmetic active ingredient.

Another example of strong commitment is the Yves Rocher Foundation's Plant For Life program. It mobilizes thousands of volunteer tree planters to revive the soil and retreat the deserts. Thanks to them and the expertise of 48 NGOs, the program is present in 35 countries, and the target of 100 million trees planted was reached by the end of 2020. In France, the Foundation has planted over 4 million trees, and will reach 5 million by 2021.

A comprehensive, practical guide for companies of all sizes

In all, this guide brings together 176 best practices from companies of all sizes and in all sectors.
It also features a series of focuses on environmental regulations and their evolution, and reviews existing certifications and standards. It also presents numerous examples of existing initiatives in which each company can choose to participate, not forgetting a "toolbox" and a diary of major upcoming events on the theme of biodiversity.

" With this guide, we want to show how, in concrete terms, each player in our industry can, at his or her own level, improve the quality of our products and services. contribute to "respecting the beauty of the worldsays Emmanuel Guichard, general delegate of the Febea. We now want to go further, faster, by relying on the strength of our collective. Together, we intend to play a major role in building a sustainable future that takes care of biodiversity. This initiative represents a first step in that direction, and it's up to us to continue amplifying the movement".

Consumers are looking for solutions to help them modify their hair care routines with more practical, long-lasting products. This is particularly true for people whose hair greases up quickly and who, in response to this problem, have adopted intensive hair-washing routines. With increasing consumer demand for time-saving solutions, growing awareness of the impact scalp imbalances can have on hair, and the need to maintain a healthy scalp, it's important to find viable solutions to combat oily scalps without compromising their balance or hair aesthetics.

Nutrinvent Balance uses a new encapsulation technology to ensure targeted vectorization and controlled release of active ingredients to the scalp and hair. Suitable for incorporation into a wide variety of hair formulations, Nutrinvent Balance offers, according to Croda, instant sebum reduction on the scalp from the very first application. An ideal ingredient for consumers prone to an oily scalp, its performance increases with each use. This gives consumers the opportunity to modify their usual hair-washing routines, with noticeable improvements in the amount of sebum on the scalp and in the aesthetics of the hair, which is cleaner and stays cleaner for longer.

Aude Lemoine-Dessaint, Marketing Manager of Croda's Beauty Effect business unit, said: "Every day at Croda, we strive to achieve our goal of providing "smart science to improve lives". Nutrinvent Balance is no exception, helping to achieve our goal by providing the effects and convenience consumers are looking for, while offering sustainable benefits - including vegan appeal, naturalness (98 % naturally derived according to ISO 16128) and the ability to reduce water consumption during use."

This collaboration, to launch a new event in Geneva, marks the latest expansion of Europe's leading network of events dedicated to packaging innovation.
Easyfairs, the world's leading event organizer, today announces the latest expansion of its international network of packaging events with a new partnership for Connect in Pharma, a new trade show aimed at driving innovation in the international packaging, medical device and pharmaceutical production markets.

Connect in Pharma was initially created by MIND Exhibitions to provide a platform of excellence for pharmaceutical and biotechnology production, with a qualitative, enriching and user-friendly experiential approach. Connect in Pharma will bring together the international pharmaceutical market to define its future in one of the industry's leading international hubs, Geneva.

Dedicated to suppliers downstream of the pharmaceutical molecule and biotech products, it will focus on stimulating innovation and networking in four key areas: packaging, medical devices, subcontracting (CMO/CDMO) and production machinery and processes. It will attract suppliers in these markets, as well as partners in regional clusters and associations, to put them in touch with the innovation, R&D, production and procurement teams of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies.

In addition to exhibitors showcasing their innovations and new products, the event will feature a wide range of animations and conferences designed to inspire new connections, collaborations and innovations in the marketplace. An annual program of digital and face-to-face activities will support the event in its mission to catalyze and connect the community.

The partnership with MIND Exhibitions for the launch of Connect in Pharma builds on Easyfairs' existing and expanding network in the international packaging market. The group already organizes packaging events in 12 cities across 10 countries, covering all aspects of the packaging supply chain, including design, development, manufacturing and logistics. 

Many of these events are already attracting audiences in the pharmaceutical market - including ADF&PCD and PLD Paris, which has more than tripled in size since Easyfairs acquired it in 2016. Easyfairs also organizes Maghreb Pharma, North Africa's leading trade show for the pharmaceutical industry. Based in Algiers, Maghreb Pharma connects the supply chain for production technologies and pharmaceutical formulations across the region and, as of this year, also welcomes new zones dedicated to packaging and cosmetics.

As a result, Connect in Pharma will benefit from the Group's existing expertise and relationships in the packaging market, as well as its proposed suite of tools and systems, to optimize the quantity and quality of connections and knowledge the event offers to buyers and suppliers in the community.

Event co-founder Jérôme Letu-Montois and members of the MIND Exhibitions team will remain active in the organization of the event alongside a dedicated Easyfairs team, ensuring the event's continuity and success.

Renan Joel, Divisional Director for Easyfairs Packaging Shows, comments: "Connect in Pharma is an exciting new show for a vital, dynamic and innovative international market. I can't wait to start working with the MIND Exhibitions team and the wider community to build a great event that will help drive innovation in the pharmaceutical sector."

Jérôme Letu-Montois, Co-Founder of Connect in Pharma, comments: "We are delighted to be working with Easyfairs to build this event and create a new hub for this community. Integrating the event into Easyfairs' existing network and structures will enable Connect in Pharma to establish itself more quickly, and will also offer our exhibitors and visitors additional services and technological tools for a better experience. Our team is very excited to start working with our new colleagues and the industry to make this happen."

Roctool Beauty Solution brings an eco-design solution to beauty packaging, focusing in particular on the sublimation of recycled or biosourced resins. By controlling mold temperature via induction, this technological innovation optimizes material flow to produce all kinds of complex parts, including ultra-thin thicknesses. It enables surface quality to be controlled by erasing appearance defects (injection points, weld lines, shrinkage, etc.), and to obtain glossy, matt or textured surfaces, even eliminating certain finishing operations such as varnishing. 

Just over a year ago, Texen and Roctool signed a collaboration agreement to jointly support Texen customers in their ecological transition through a complementary value proposition. Today, the collaboration is intensifying as part of a proactive approach. Texen has just launched its first production run and is investing more heavily in new Roctool production systems under its BESST* Transform brand. 

At the origin of this non-exclusive partnership, the two players are committed to clearly identified strategic challenges. On the one hand, Texen, whose mission is to transform matter into experience in a virtuous way; on the other, Roctool, whose technological innovation brings real opportunities in the transformation and sublimation of new-generation materials.

Delivering on market commitments

Following the installation of the first Roctool equipment in 2020, Texen is stepping up deployment of the technology across its French industrial estate. Several of its production lines are now equipped with new Roctool systems. With the aim of offering a co-development force to its customers, the Texen lab, equipped since early 2021, thus offers resources that can address the intersecting challenges of sustainable design, competitiveness and Brand Equity. 

In just one year, this partnership approach resulted in the first ultra-premium development in 100 % recycled resin, the first step towards an iconic make-up range for which the brand has chosen PCR resins.

This summer, Polaar launched its new Men range.

In their quest for natural, effective skincare products, Polaar has once again entrusted Creapharm Cosmetics with the formulation, manufacture and packaging of their new product. Following on from the success of their best-selling Nuit Polaire cream, Polaar remains loyal to Creapharm for the development of this new skincare product: Déo du Trappeur.

"Over and above the Made in France concept, which is very important to us, it was the sensoriality and efficacy of Creapharm Cosmetics products that won us over back in 2011," emphasizes R&D manager Mégane Dumont, Purchasing Manager at Polaar.

Creapharm supported Polaar in the tailor-made development of its men's deodorant: a formula pre-developed in its R&D laboratory, to which Polaar added its flagship active ingredient, Arctic Lichen. These large sticks were then manufactured and packaged by hot-casting on Creapharm Cosmetics lines.

This solid deodorant is a real co-creation: a vegan formula (without ingredients of animal origin) with over 99 % of ingredients of natural origin. The result: a skincare product combining effectiveness and sensoriality, according to Creapharm Cosmetics, "that should delight their male customers!"

"It's this combination of expertise that regularly gives rise to new Polaar products. Creapharm Cosmetics knows how to rise to the industrial challenge, and offers us real support. A guarantee of the quality of our finished products!" concludes Mégane Dumont, R&D, Purchasing Manager at Polaar.
