Today’s consumers are seeking products that deliver more than just high performance. They are paying close attention to packaging and its impact on the environment, and prioritising buying from brands that can demonstrate environmental governance and responsible actions.
This is true across all segments, with the beauty, home and personal care markets under particular scrutiny. As products – and packaging – which consumers interact with on a daily basis, it is imperative for brands in these market segments to overtly demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and the environment, balanced with performance and functionality.
To handle the emerging challenges around creating sustainable packaging, all packaging businesses are having to adapt. Rising costs, material shortages and supply chain disruptions have added further pressure, and in this market, using the most up-to-date processes and technologies is key to aligning packaging with the evolving needs of brands and consumers. At the same time, packaging needs to balance its environmental impact with high performance, convenience and functionality, as well as delivering strong visuals and aesthetic appeal.
At Korozo Group, we have faced these challenges head-on. Having been founded more than five decades ago, we are continuously evolving and in 2024 have positioned ourselves as a leader in sustainable flexible packaging solutions and supporting customers worldwide. Innovative, durable and sustainable solutions are offered for a wide range of products.
With a fierce commitment to sustainable practices that help to minimise both our own environmental impact and that of our customers, we strive to make efficient use of natural resources, reduce waste and support recycling, creating packaging solutions that do not cost the earth.
In the beauty market, Korozo is at the forefront of designing packaging solutions that incorporate natural ingredients and recycled materials, without affecting protection or visual appeal. Our knowledge of this sector ensures our packaging meets the unique requirements of skincare, haircare, cosmetics and healthcare products. Whether it’s sachets for creams, pouches for beauty masks and bath oils, or specialised packaging for haircare and pharmaceutical applications, we have the expertise to deliver packaging that enhances both product safety and the consumer experience.
Korozo’s innovative packaging is built from the ground up with functionality and sustainability in mind. Our solutions are tailored to reduce customers’ environmental impact without compromising on product protection, including advanced barrier technologies that guard against moisture, air and light. From child-resistant closures to unit dosing, low-temperature sealing, and peelable films, these packaging solutions offer convenience and safety. Moreover, our packaging ensures high standards of performance while incorporating materials that align with global sustainability goals.
This performance is achieved throughout our range of products - from high-barrier customisable films to spouted pouches - ensuring flexibility, durability, and premium print quality regardless of the packaging structure being used.
To address the needs of the home care market, Korozo Group offers a range of packaging solutions addressing every application from automatic dishwash detergent up to home cleaning products. This includes mono-materials and laminated films compatible with high-speed filling lines, ensuring reliable sealing and moisture protection with a strong focus on sustainability.
For liquid detergents, our spouted pouches ensure exceptional shelf presence, freshness and barrier protection, and are designed to be easy to use and resealable. By lightweighting these solutions from rigid to flexible packaging, we have taken an important step in reducing plastic consumption by up to 70%, while still maintaining recyclability.
Our versatile packaging for this segment can also accommodate other household liquids, offering both convenience and leak-proof sealing. Our specialised solutions for detergent tablets and soaps are tailored for both horizontal and vertical filling lines, ensuring strong seals and minimising leakage during production and use.
Personal care items have unique demands across all age groups, and Korozo understands these needs well. Our personal care bags are designed to provide exceptional tear resistance, ensuring secure packaging for sensitive items such as diapers, sanitary towels, and bed pads. PE’s flexibility to protect contents from light and contaminants make it an ideal material for these applications.
When it comes to baby care, where every detail matters, Korozo’s personal care bags offer the perfect external packaging solution for diapers, with the added option of customised handles such as grift handles or cross handles. For adult hygiene products, our ranges provide the same level of protection and convenience, with customisable designs tailored to specific customer requirements.
For toilet paper and paper towels, our printed personal care bags and films ensure robust, flexible packaging with integrity and excellent print capabilities. These bags can be supplied in various sizes and styles, with or without handles, and can be printed in up to 11 colours – ensuring the perfect blend of functionality and brand appeal.
As part of our environmental efforts, our personal care bags can be produced with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content which helps reduce waste and contributes to a circular economy. These high PCR content products retain their mechanical strength and sealing performance, while still offering high quality printing, making them a more sustainable, visually appealing option for brands aiming to reduce their environmental impact.
We are committed to driving innovation in packaging and believes every packaging solution should be as unique as the product it protects. Each tailor-made product can be customised to fit specific machine characteristics and product requirements, whether they need enhanced print capabilities or optimised material choices for superior performance. These fully customisable solutions ensure clients receive the highest quality packaging, regardless of application.
With one of the largest manufacturing facilities in Europe and the Middle East, boasting an annual production capacity exceeding 137,000 tons, our in-house capabilities and ingrained passion for sustainability means it is well-versed in engineering products and solutions that support recycling and the circular economy.
We does not just walk the walk on sustainability. We have gained a range of certifications and qualifications supporting our environmental credentials, including BRC, ISO, GS, and Cyclos HTP-Institute. These provide our customers with peace of mind that our solutions help to minimise their environmental impact, reducing emissions and waste across the supply chain.
With a deep understanding of the specific requirements of packing technology, Korozo Group continues to lead the market in flexible, more sustainable packaging solutions. We are creating solutions that combine aesthetics, functionality and sustainability. With these three elements working together, packaging can deliver the perfect solution for today’s discerning consumers.
