SOAP PACKAGING FROM AGRICULTURAL WASTE: beautiful and sustainable
The range of natural, organic, and biological soaps, shampoos, and skin care products is increasing rapidly. Consequently, at PaperWise, we are seeing a swift rise in demand for sustainable and environmentally responsible packaging for these beauty and care products. The desire for a natural and luxurious appearance is central to this. Be inspired by how environmentally responsible packaging and a beautiful appearance go hand in hand.
Natural and organic cleaning and care products deserve natural, sustainable, and environmentally friendly packaging. At least, this is the feedback we often receive from our customers. Finding plastic-free ecological packaging for natural soaps, shampoos, shower gels, body butters, and scrubs is quite a challenge. More and more liquid soaps, shampoos, and scrubs packaged in plastic bottles or tubes are being replaced by natural and organic products in solid form. Just look around; you see more and more eco-responsible “bars” entering the market: cleansing soap bars for the body, facial cleansing bars for the face, and shampoo bars for hair care.
By creating soaps and care products in solid form, much less packaging material is required. For the environmentally responsible packaging of natural cosmetics, cleaning, and care products, PaperWise offers a sustainable solution in many cases. Take Gamila Secret as an example: a 100% natural skin care brand, made on the basis of pure olive oil with a unique combination of 7 oils and 15 types of herbs from the Galilee region in Israel. With its luxury cleansing bars, facial oils, hand creams, and foot balms, Gamila Secret brings nature back to us with a wonderful touch of wellness. “Raised by nature, gathered by Gamila, to nourish healthy skin.”
The sustainable, environmentally friendly soap packaging of Gamila Secret radiates natural beauty. The unbleached light brown PaperWise Natural 295 gram paperboard is printed minimalistically with one color, where the gray tones are derived from the color black. The Gamila Secret packaging consists of a base with an inlay provided with a slip lid. The natural scents of the soaps find their way out by lightly pressing on the lid of the packaging. A scent opening in the lid prevents unnecessary opening of the packaging in stores. A beautiful example of sustainable, practical packaging that contributes maximally to a unique product experience!
Loeze also chose PaperWise in her search for environmentally friendly soap packaging because, in her own words, it fits the Loeze concept perfectly. The natural handmade soaps contain a base of carefully selected organic olive oil. Exclusively natural and powerful ingredients, together with pure essential oils, freshly dried botanicals, and clays, ensure that the soaps lather wonderfully and are gentle on your skin. In a socially responsible manner, these “organic handmade soaps” are provided with customer logos and texts and then packaged by employees with a distance to the labor market.
For the packaging of the organic soaps, Loeze chose a sustainable soap wrap from PaperWise. Loeze sets high quality standards for her care products and packaging. For the final choice of the correct soap packaging, Loeze Zeep conducted an extensive testing procedure, in which the soaps in the packaging were exposed to heat, cold, packaging time, and scent release through the packaging. All packaging tests with PaperWise Natural were completed positively. After various tests, the environmentally responsible unbleached PaperWise Natural 70 gram paper was ultimately chosen.
In addition to a practical role, the luxury soap wrap from PaperWise fulfills another need: through surprising illustrations, the soap packaging tells the story of Loeze. The corporate identity colors of Loeze are well-represented in the printing on the unbleached, eco-friendly PaperWise Natural paper. Unboxing joy, reading pleasure, and showering pleasure come together in this beautiful, environmentally friendly, and responsible soap wrap!
