The challenge

A personal care brand wanted recycled content across a clear PET range without the haze, tint or quality drop that recycled material can introduce. Shelf presence mattered as much as sustainability.

What we did

  • 1Sampled recycled PET sources against the brand’s clarity benchmark.
  • 2Tuned the blend to hold clarity at up to 50% recycled content.
  • 3Validated across multiple lines and pack formats.
  • 4Rolled out in stages to protect supply and consistency.

“We did not think we could get to 50% recycled and keep it this clear. They proved us wrong.”
