Helping Tropic Skincare Ltd to reduce packaging impact and comply with the Packaging Waste Regulations

Tropic Skincare Ltd manufacture and sell cosmetics and beauty products online and release new ranges twice a year, which meant that keeping up with packaging data submissions to ensure compliance with the Packaging Waste Regulations was proving to be a challenge.

Alongside this, they were also keen to take the correct steps to reduce their impact on the environment through clever packaging design, as well as reduce the amount of Tropic Skincare packaging going to landfill.

Beauty Packaging

Tropic Skincare signed up to our Packaging Compliance and Data Insights services to ensure that the collection of their constantly changing packaging data was continually managed.

Each year, we complete weighing days and contact Tropic Skincare’s suppliers to capture the packaging weights of new product lines and to refresh the weights in our existing database. Doing so ensures that Tropic Skincare achieve an accurate obligation each year, which gives them confidence that their costs are a true reflection of their activities.

We also have regular meetings with Tropic Skincare to keep the business up to date with any regulation changes and to inform and prepare them of future regulations, such as the Plastic Packaging Tax.

Data Management

As a result of having a good understanding of the Packaging Waste Regulations, alongside the desire to reduce packaging overall, Tropic has launched a range of refillable packaging. This has a positive impact on both the environment and their overall packaging obligation, as the refill options are lighter and have fewer packaging components.

Tropic are now confident that they are fully compliant with the Packaging Waste Regulations and pleased that they have made a positive change in line with their core belief of providing beauty products with a conscience.
