UK: CTPA- Guidance on Refills and Reuse Models – Key Considerations

In order to show its support to transition towards a circular economy and the reuse of packaging and thereby preventing excess waste generation, CTPA has launched a guidance on the supply of cosmetic and personal care products in formats allowing the filling, directly or indirectly, into previously used and cleaned packaging and also feasilibility of different established refilling models (such as refill in-store or at home, or returning packaging to a store or from home for refilling and being sold again ‘prefilled’, etc.) in the context of UK have been discussed.
