Frequently Asked Questions and Enquiries
I can see “plastic” and “paper” displayed on the container of my beauty product. Why is this?
This is to identify what the container or packaging is made out of. In small letters next to “plastic” and “paper”, you will see the words “sticker”, “bottle” and “cap”, so you know what each part is made from. “PP” and “PET” are abbreviations referring to resins that are used in beauty product containers and packaging.
In Japan, this way of identifying materials is stipulated by the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law, which was enacted to help consumers better separate their rubbish, and in the cosmetics industry this means that standardised labels are used to show the materials of containers and packaging.
