Is it virgin or renewed?

Cristal Renew copolyesters address one of the foundational elements of the circular economy — turning plastic waste back into plastic that is indistinguishable from virgin products with no drop-off in aesthetics or performance. This means you can put Eastman Renew materials in your existing copolyester molds without making changes, saving time and money that would otherwise have to be invested in requalification.

Offered at scale with immediate availability for all grades, Cristal Renew features:

  • Drop-in performance with no mold changes required
  • No compromises in aesthetics or performance with excellent color and clarity
  • Landfill diversion, resource conservation and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions

“Eastman’s innovative molecular recycling technologies are playing a crucial role in helping LVMH achieve our sustainability targets. We are at the very beginning of our journey to meet our targets. We need solutions that are available now and at a global scale, ensuring our customers experience these benefits immediately.”

– Hélène Valade, LVMH environmental development director

Circularity

Cristal Renew is made via our molecular recycling technology, a process that breaks down hard-to-recycle plastic waste to its molecular building blocks to create new, high-performance materials. As a result, Cristal Renew offers brands the same level of performance and design freedom they have come to expect from legacy Cristal in luxury cosmetic packaging.
