Beauty packaging manufacturer Quadpack has reengineered its Arena PET refill jar into a glass format for premium beauty and cosmeceutical brands, retaining the pack's wide silhouette, ergonomic design and refillable system.

The 60ml outer jar contains 30 per cent post-consumer recycled (PCR) glass and is made in Europe using recyclable and recycled materials. It features a low-profile design with a thick base, while the 50ml refill reduces the space between the inner and outer jars to minimise overpackaging.

The inner jar and cap are made from monomaterial polypropylene with a minimum of 30 per cent PCR content. Integrated grip areas on the inner jar are designed to make the refill easier to remove and replace.

The company says an optional shive can be added, while the refill is also suitable for induction thermosealing during filling, removing the need for a temporary cap and reducing material use.

Quadpack says the dual structure of the glass outer jar and refill allows for a range of decoration options, from luxury finishes to more clinical aesthetics.

According to the company, the Arena Glass Refill Jar expands its Arena range with a glass format while combining refillability, functionality and a choice of decoration options for skincare packaging.
