"Cristal Renew and Eastman's innovative molecular recycling technologies will

LANEIGE's Water Sleeping Mask featuring Cristal Renew will be available at

cosmetics retailer Sephora in the U.S. and Canada and at us.laneige.com

Beloved by customers since 2002, the new Water Sleeping Mask features

technological advances in skin care and in its packaging—with a

probiotics-derived complex to fortify skin's moisture barrier that improves

clarity, texture packaged in beautiful jars made from molecular recycling

technology.

Eastman's molecular recycling technologies break down hard-to-recycle plastic

waste into building blocks used to create new materials that are comparable to

traditional materials in clarity, luster and mechanical properties. Using

molecular recycling to make these materials diverts plastic waste from

landfills, incinerators and the environment. The process also reduces the use

of fossil resources and results in 20%–50% lower greenhouse gas emissions than

traditional manufacturing.

For Amorepacific, Cristal Renew is key to creating recycled-content packaging

that lives up to its signature beauty aesthetic, renowned worldwide. Cristal

Renew, available with 30% and 50% certified recycled content*, gives the skin

care leader brilliant, crystal clear packaging that enhances its products and

customer experience.

"It's an honor to be selected as a partner in Amorepacific's sustainability

journey," said Glenn Goldman, commercial director for Plastics at Eastman. "We

look forward to working further with them to bring new innovations to market,

beginning with the LANEIGE launch before the end of the year."
