Products
Our goal is to design our products with a focus on their impact on the environment from production to the end use.
Lumson uses raw materials that meet both technical and international regulatory requirements. All the components in direct contact with formulas are made with raw materials suitable for contact with food.
GLASS
Glass is an excellent sustainable material because it is 100% recyclable without compromising on quality. In addition, it can be recycled an infinite number of times. Lumson offers a wide range of bottles and jars available in PCR GLASS.
PLASTIC
Lumson produces a vast range of cosmetics packaging using a variety of eco-friendly plastic materials: from recyclable and PCR plastics to bio based materials.
ALUMINUM
Aluminium is the most common natural metal on Earth. It is a light, versatile and ecological material, that can be recycled countless times without losing its qualities. Aluminium is a sustainable alternative material and helps to achieve sustainability goals.
PAPER
Paper is the most natural material in the world, versatile, recyclable and pleasing to touch. The perfect solution for packaging with an eco-design approach.
RE-DUCE
Reducing is a priority for Lumson. To increase the restitution rate and to make more efficient packaging, the company eliminates the use of every unnecessary component and makes products lighter by using materials with a lower specific weight.
RE-USE
More packaging with refillable features will be added to Lumson's portfolio. All designed to be easy to use and to take into account the complete life cycle of a product
RE-CYCLE
Lumson is aimed at increasing the use of:
- post consumer recycled materials derived from mechanical and chemical recycling, which is always monitored in terms of availability and tested upon agreements with clients;
- materials with high recyclability efficiency with well consolidated supply chains for glass, aluminum and paper.
- recyclable plastic packaging solutions, specifically developed to facilitate the separation of components;
- the reduction of thermoplastic resins for which there are no recycling supply chains in favour of those that already exist.
