There is a persistent myth in corporate logistics that transitioning to sustainable packaging is inherently a cost center. Global cosmetics giant COTY proved exactly the opposite.
By partnering with PAPACKS (RENW's strategic partner) at their Cologne factory, COTY transitioned from a linear, single-use plastic transport system (PP trays for perfume flacons) to a closed-loop molded fiber system. The financial and environmental impact was immediate and substantial.
The entire system implementation achieved full Return on Investment (ROI) in just 21 weeks.
