There's a need for more environmentally friendly packaging solutions, especially within the realm of beauty, and Arjowiggins is a manufacturer that's introducing an innovative barrier paper alternative. The paper is translucent and also recyclable, compostable and marine-degradable, helping to keep cosmetics and food products fresh in an eco-friendly way. Arjowiggins' research and development team created the fully recyclable barrier paper alternative with natural bonding and without the need for harmful chemicals.

As Christophe Jordan, Managing Director of the translucent papers division at Arjowiggins, describes: “Until now, most of the existing offers, mainly in single-use packaging, use unrecyclable, multi-layer laminates incorporating plastics or aluminium foil. The good news is cosmetics brands looking for a fully recyclable, compostable and biodegradable paper packaging need look no further than Sylvicta–the product is simply revolutionary."
