In June 2026, Baralan is all set to introduce its integrated approach to innovation, compliance, and responsible development at the Luxe Pack in Paris.
Baralan is well-known as an international player of primary packaging for the cosmetic industry. The company is also well-known for strengthening its commitment to increasingly responsible and forward-looking development. The company’s proven expertise and a well-rooted design culture in innovation, research, and industrial quality are helping it to pursue its strategic path aimed at integrating sustainability, performance, and regulatory developments into its global offering.
The growing European regulations for the packaging industry, along with brands constantly switching to eco-friendly packaging, Baralan presents its Rethink Strategy: a strategy developed to guide the evolution of its product portfolio and business processes according to principles of eco-design, recyclability, and responsible development.
The main aim of the brand to opt for sustainable packaging practices by the brand was to address the packaging challenges faced by the cosmetic industry, supporting brands and partners in the transition towards solutions that are increasingly advanced from a technical, aesthetic, and environmental standpoint. The main aim of redefining packaging is to make packaging capable of combining quality, functionality, and a premium identity with a design approach increasingly oriented towards circularity and resource optimization.
The strategy designed by the brand primarily aims at reducing the use of virgin raw materials, developing components designed to facilitate end-of-life processes, and also optimizing material weight, with a particular focus on glass solutions and plastic accessories. The company is also expanding the use of materials compatible with recycling processes and developing new solutions aimed at simplifying multi-material products. Baralan is implementing increasingly structured activities in technical analysis, substance screening, regulatory documentation, and traceability throughout the supply chain, in line with evolving European and international packaging regulations.
Innovation also plays a major role in designing sustainable packaging for the brand. Baralan continues to invest in the development of proprietary technologies and advanced solutions that combine performance, functionality, and environmental sustainability. Key areas of development include the adoption of single-material solutions, the gradual introduction of post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials in both plastic and glass, the offering of refillable or rechargeable solutions, and the application of Design for Recycling (DfR) criteria to new products, to reduce waste while also enhancing the functional efficiency of the proposed solutions.
The sustainability strategy planned by the brand also involves a rigorous approach to compliance management for primary packaging. The main aim of the strategy is to foster a supply chain that is increasingly transparent and aligned with emerging international standards. The company is also working on developing internal frameworks dedicated to validating environmental claims, collecting technical documentation, and ensuring alignment with the requirements of major global markets.
The initiative is a part of the ESG roadmap launched in recent years and progressively expanded through environmental monitoring, impact assessments, the establishment of dedicated KPIs, and supply chain engagement. The company has also implemented management systems and assessment tools designed to build an increasingly structured, responsible, and long-term growth model.
“Sustainability is now a central element in the development of cosmetic packaging and requires a concrete, structured, and technically feasible approach,” comments Caroline Baranes, Chief Business Officer. “Our goal is to develop solutions that combine innovation, functionality, quality, and regulatory compliance, supporting brands in a market increasingly focused on environmental responsibility.”
With this strategy of the brand, it reaffirms its commitment to promote a packaging model combining high quality, technological innovation, and sustainability, responding to the needs of a constantly evolving sector and also actively contributing to building a responsible future for the beauty industry.
