"Cristal Renew and Eastman's innovative molecular recycling technologies will
play a crucial role in helping us achieve the commitments laid out in our '2030
A MORE Beautiful Promise,' without sacrificing the premier beauty experience
customers expect from Amorepacific," said Jung Changwook, senior vice president
of Amorepacific development and purchasing division.
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."
