Bamboo Cap

We have developed a bamboo cap that seals the bottle to ensure not only the  longevity of the nail polish but also replace a single use only plastic cap.

 

Our bamboo cap is decomposable and highly sustainable due to the following facts;

​

  • Bamboo is a grass

  • Bamboo absorbs five times the amount of carbon dioxide as trees

  • Bamboo self regenerates in 3-4 months

  • Bamboo contains natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties

  • Bamboo produces 35% more oxygen than trees

Recycle and Reuse

In Switzerland, we are testing our recycle and reuse program. This program allows for a circular economy with the materials used. The program works by returning the used nail polish bottles and bamboo caps to us. We clean, sterilise and reuse the materials. Anything that is beyond use is processed through our recycling management partner.
