R E D K E N S H A M P O O B O T T L E S
• Ensure global color consistency across all Redken PCR packaging in order
to launch in North America and Europe at the same time
• Shorten time to launch by simplifying decision making process and avoiding
lengthy lab trials
• Ability to transition to high levels of PCR, and to facilitate transfer from one
PCR to another
• Solution that works with mixed grades of PCR, both rPET and polyolefins
• Created a process with L’Oréal to overcome PCR
coloring challenges and simplify recycled resin
coloration for global consistency
• Helped L’Oréal towards its objective to have 100%
of packaging plastics to be either from recycled or
bio-based sources
• Achieved a perfect color match on the first try in 8
out of 10 cases
