The packaging is an important element in the sales of certain products such as cosmetics, as it enables easy identification of the product while creating a brand identity and creating an impression of luxury. In the cosmetic sector, packaging has to ensure that the product is completely untouched by external factors that may contaminate the product. Airless packaging has been used in the packaging of skincare and cosmetic products from the 1980s and is persistently developing. In a nutshell, airless packaging is a type of liquid dispensing packaging that inhibits normal atmospheric air from interacting with the preparation inside a container.
The airless packaging refers to the dispensing systems, used on cosmetics to prevent the skin care products, such as lotions, toners, foundations, and serum from the excessive exposure of air and prevent the products form oxidation. These are available in the form of bottles & jars, bags & pouches, tubes and others, which are easy to carry. Airless packaging is also used in the packaging of food and beverages to keep the food fresh and healthy. The popularity of the same is on an increase and various companies are coming up with the stylish and innovative designs of tubes and jars. For instance, Alba offers various airless packaging solutions with extra protection of beauty products, which require higher levels of protection. The Nea range of Alba offers modern pumps designs that are customized and offer smooth operation with a high suction rate.
Airless bottles are also ideal cosmetics packaging for skincare products, such as lotion, serum, gel, cream, foundation, and cleanser, etc. As the hazard of contamination and degradation is nearly non-existent for airless packaging, it permits producers to lessen the usage of preservatives thus holding products in a more organic state. This is prompting major players in the market to incorporate airless packaging for packing their products. For example, COSMOGEN has strengthened its product range of eco-friendly packaging solutions and applicators, though PYC delivers a turnkey variety of airless bottles, also branded ECOCERT. As a specialist in application solutions, Cosmogen has introduced novel packaging and applicators, produced from PCR, natural and bio-based materials and FSC wood while decreasing their quantity or presenting refillable packaging. The demand for airless packaging is anticipated to increase at a steady pace in the coming period. The ability to maintain pristine original composition while reducing the use of chemical preservatives is expected to promote the Airless Packaging Market.
The use of airless packaging is gaining traction because it helps utilize all the content of the product as compared to conventional packing methods and delivers a type of value for money benefit to the end-users. Also, these days skincare products include ingredients that are powerful bio-active ingredients, and their action on the skin can get compromised by repeated exposure to oxygen by allowing the formation of bacteria, this factor can further motivate the market progress of airless packaging. Recently, joined forces with Neopac in the making of its new ‘Amplify’ dispensing system, an airless pump on tube design that includes a 96 % evacuation rate for pumping out the product. Silgan describes that Amplify was created with active, on-the-go consumers in mind, with its Pure Path airless pump-on-tube design that allows for simple, germ-free and controlled dosing.
