In regards to sustainable cosmetics and personal care packaging:

"A Jar is a Jar" said Utroske i n "Sustainable personal care packaging materials and design reconsidered" on 02-Nov-2016. The author, Deanna Utroske, explained that many manufacturers, jar-makers and packaging companies today are highlighting and pushing for GREEN alternatives. Parkway's Green alternatives can be found in the sustainable plastic materials we offer. The author of the article published in cosmeticdesign.com on November 2nd, gave us an example of a company who used to package their products in glass jars in the 1900's but over the years switched to plastic jars. The package style (The Jar) simply remained the same but the material changed, she explains.

"Sustainable personal care packaging materials and design reconsidered", by Deanna Utroske also claimed that recyclable and refillable containers are sustainable; There are even certain refillable programs companies can be a part of.

Sustainable personal care packaging materials and design reconsidered

By Deanna Utroske, 02-Nov-2016

Manufacturing in a sustainable way is undeniably good business for any industry that hopes to outlast the current moment. But what ‘sustainability’ is and how to make it an accurate description of the beauty product packaging supply chain is another matter entirely.
