The Brazilian petrochemical company has invested $23 million to expand its production capacity of low density polyethylene in a bid to support demand for the polymer used in cosmetic packaging.
The Netherlands-based packaging division of petrochemical company Sabic has consolidated its operations in the caps and closures sector by forming a one source service for the category.
While the Western European market for plastic caps and closures may
be growing, cosmetics and personal care companies will have to be
less choosy when picking their supplier, report Ahmed ElAmin and
Simon Pitman.
