Discovering the right reusable makeup packaging

Reusable makeup packaging is much more than just a container: it is a driver of innovation and a strategic asset for cosmetics brands. With the rise of responsible consumption, consumers are now looking for skincare products that are sustainable without compromising on quality or aesthetics.

Our refill pods for cosmetics meet these expectations perfectly. Designed to protect your formulations while promoting your brand image, they merge technical robustness with everyday usability. Each cosmetic refill container is made-to-measure for your range: facial care, hair products, makeup, or hygiene.

We offer a range of diameters, lengths, and volumes, compatible with all formulations, from thick creams to fluid gels. Thanks to their multi-layer design, our tubes guarantee the stability of specialty formulas and excellent product dispensing, even after multiple uses.

Our customisable solutions allow you to choose materials (aluminium barrier, fully recyclable plastic, or bio-based plastics), closure systems, and aesthetic finishes. The goal: create packaging that reflects your values and appeals to consumers at first glance.

Our range of refillable beauty packaging

Laminated tubes with aluminium barrier

These tubes are ideal for specialty formulations such as anti-aging creams, dermatological ointments, or highly concentrated serums. With a thin aluminium layer, they offer excellent protection against air, moisture, and light. This guarantees product stability and optimal shelf life, even for perishable active ingredients such as vitamins or hyaluronic acids. 

Full plastic laminated tubes (without aluminium)

Fully recyclable and aluminium-free, our full plastic tubes are the most eco-friendly option for organic, natural, or zero-waste cosmetic brands. Made from PE or PET, they offer flexibility, mechanical resistance, and compatibility with numerous cosmetic formulations. Their recyclability is ideal for hygiene products (toothpastes, shower gels, shampoos) or everyday items. Customisation options include direct printing, metallisation, varnishing, or embossing, maintaining an aesthetic, modern look.

Choosing the right material for refillable packaging

The choice of material for your cosmetic refill containers depends on your cosmetic formula, your brand positioning and your environmental commitment. Here are a few pointers to help you select the most suitable solution.

For sensitive and highly active formulas

If your creams or serums contain sensitive ingredients such as vitamins, essential oils or peptides, a laminated tube with an aluminium barrier is the best option. It provides effective protection against oxidation, moisture and light, ensuring the stability and shelf life of the product.

For organic, natural or mass-market ranges

If you are looking for more environmentally friendly packaging, opt for a full plastic tube made entirely of PE or PET. Fully recyclable, it is ideal for hygiene products (toothpaste, shower gel, shampoo) or organic and clean beauty ranges. Its advantage: it combines durability, flexibility and ease of recycling.

For a stronger CSR commitment

Brands wishing to go even further in their environmental approach can opt for laminated tubes made from recycled plastic (PCR) or bio-based resin. These innovative solutions reduce the carbon footprint while meeting the expectations of consumers who favour sustainable cosmetics.
