UDN has recently introduced an innovative material for cosmetic packaging: edible oil-based resin. This eco-friendly alternative enables brands to transition from petroleum-based materials to a more sustainable option without altering their existing product designs. By using this resin, products can maintain high performance standards while also reducing their carbon footprint, thereby supporting brands in achieving their environmental goals.
Production Process: Edible oil-based resin is produced using used cooking oil (UCO) and a variety of other renewable raw materials. These materials undergo a thorough refining process, converting bio-based oils into top-tier raw materials suitable for plastic manufacturing. A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) by our supplier underscores the material's potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an impressive 75% or more when compared to conventional petroleum-based raw materials.
Safety Assurance: UDN's recycled edible oil-based resin is sourced from a globally recognized manufacturer known for its rigorous supply chain standards. The raw material undergoes stringent safety testing and is guaranteed to be free from animal fats and castor oil. Our commitment to quality is further solidified by comprehensive oversight processes and prestigious certifications, including the ISCC Plus Certificate and Circulen Renew Certificate.
Brand Benefits: By embracing edible oil-based resin, your brand stands to gain a myriad of benefits:
• It bolsters your brand's eco-friendly image, resonating with environmentally conscious consumers.
• It preserves the quality of your products, as this material rivals traditional plastic materials in terms of quality.
• It upholds the recyclability of your plastic products, reinforcing your brand's commitment to sustainability.
UDN's Sustainable Strategy: UDN's sustainable strategy centers on the core principle of "Replace." We are dedicated to helping brands adopt eco-friendly practices by offering a diverse array of sustainable materials.
