Kolmar Korea, a supplier to global cosmetics brands such as Estee Lauder, has unveiled a new paper stick container made from mineral paper that is capable of replacing plastic in cosmetics packaging.
The eco-friendly container is sealed with a stopper cap made of an environmentally friendly material that contains 51% paper, thereby reducing plastic usage. Kolmar Korea is set to launch lip balm and sun stick products that will use paper stick containers in the second half of this year.
Kolmar Korea has been focused on developing eco-friendly packaging solutions for cosmetics since commercializing paper tubes in 2020, with a view to reducing plastic usage. The introduction of the new paper stick container is the latest step toward achieving this goal.
