Verescence, the world leader in luxury bottles for the perfume and cosmetics industry, announces the launch of Glass Score, a tool to help reduce the environmental impact of glass bottles during the design and development phases.
With Glass Score, Verescence offers its customers the possibility to evaluate the lightness level of their products without the influence of the capacity. The scoring system assigns a score ranging from A+ (the lightest possible) to F for each bottle, allowing brands to compare their products on a universal scale and to work on new lightweighting projects.
The average perfumery and cosmetic bottle on the market is between B and C grades, and Verescence's objective is to help its customers achieve a more virtuous Glass Score by proposing realistic weight reduction objectives that respect the initial design of the project.
Samuel Joachim, Director of Innovation and Development at Verescence, comments: " GlassScore is a simple and efficient tool that allows you to know the level of lightening of a bottle orof a glass jar, to propose lightweighting solutions and make informed choices in terms of eco-design. This initiative has already generated a lot of interest from our key customers. "The launch of Glass Score is part of Verescence's "Glass As a Service" program, which aims to offer a full range of eco-design services to its customers since 2017: Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), recyclability study and 3D modeling.
