Eco-Packaging in Cosmetics: How "to be" Cares for the Environment?
Conscious choices are more than just a trend—they represent a lifestyle that transforms how we consume, including in the realm of cosmetics. At "to be," we are committed to eco-friendly solutions that reduce environmental impact. One of our standout achievements is the use of innovative eco-packaging, particularly mycelium-based materials, for our soy candle packaging.
In this article, we’ll explore why eco-packaging matters, the innovations “to be” has implemented, and how your choice of our products supports ecological balance.
Why Does Eco-Packaging Matter?
Each year, millions of tons of plastic waste are generated globally, with a significant portion coming from single-use packaging. The cosmetics industry is a major contributor to plastic consumption, producing individual packaging for products that are often non-recyclable.
Plastic waste pollutes soil, water, and even air, taking centuries to decompose and leaving a harmful legacy for ecosystems. By choosing cosmetics with eco-packaging, you’re not just purchasing a quality product—you’re also contributing to nature conservation.
How Is “to be” Changing the Game?
At "to be," we design our products with environmental care in mind, introducing innovative packaging solutions based on the following principles:
- Minimalism: We avoid unnecessary decorative elements to reduce the use of non-recyclable materials.
- Recyclability: Our packaging materials are either recycled or biodegradable.
- Innovative Biomaterials: For example, we use mycelium in the packaging of our soy candles.
Mycelium: A Revolutionary Packaging Material
Mycelium, the root structure of fungi, is a biodegradable material that serves as an excellent alternative to plastic. Its key benefits include:
- Eco-friendliness: Mycelium is grown in controlled environments and fully decomposes without harming nature.
- Durability: It is resistant to mechanical damage, making it reliable for product storage.
- Natural Origin: Mycelium is made from natural resources and does not require harmful chemicals during production.
At "to be," mycelium is used for eco-friendly packaging of our soy candles, offering a stylish, minimalist, and sustainable solution.
Other Eco-Friendly Initiatives by “to be”
In addition to mycelium, "to be" integrates other environmentally conscious practices, including:
- Biodegradable Materials: Our product packaging is designed to decompose quickly and leave no trace in nature.
- Kraft Paper: Recycled paper is used for labels and cards, ensuring easy recycling.
- Recycled Plastic: Some packaging incorporates recycled plastic, reducing the need for new waste.
