The future belongs to companies that are able to understand what those consumers will need”.

“For 2019, we are looking to introduce refillable/cartridge style packaging in jar, lotion, and airless bottles – says Andy Qin, sales manager from Queens Packaging in China. “This type of packaging is special because it drastically decreases the amount of packaging that gets discarded once the product runs out”.
