Merry Newon Launches PPWR-Ready Glass Bottle & Jar Line for Beauty and Nutraceutical Brands as EU Regulation Takes Full Effect

Merrynewon, a specialist in sustainable rigid packaging, today announced the launch of a comprehensive glass bottle and jar product line for cosmetics and pharmaceutical capsule supplements. The expansion lands as the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR, EU 2025/40) enters full application — effective August 12, 2026 — alongside the bloc's PFAS ban, triggering a compliance reset across the beauty and supplement supply chain.

Glass: the material PPWR itself points to

Under PPWR, all packaging — regardless of material — must now meet stricter recyclability, heavy-metal, and declaration requirements. Glass stands apart: the regulation expressly recognises the role of certain packaging formats in protecting product safety, quality, and efficacy.

Merrynewon's new glass line is engineered around that compliance logic:

• Chemically inert: no migration risk to formulations, ideal for sensitive actives.
• PFAS-free by nature: glass contains no intentionally added PFAS — a structural advantage as the EU ban takes effect.
• Infinitely recyclable: fully closed-loop recyclable without quality loss, aligned with PPWR's recyclability and EPR trajectory.

One portfolio, two high-growth verticals

The line covers both amber and clear/frosted options across a range of sizes 30-500ml,  tailored to two application verticals:

• Cosmetics: serums, creams, facial oils — where transparency, premium touch, and formulation stability define brand perception.
• Pharmaceutical capsule supplements: Amber glass protects light-sensitive actives such as vitamins, probiotics, and fish oil from UV degradation, while the inert barrier shields against oxygen and moisture ingress.

From aluminum to glass: a true one-stop packaging partner

The launch extends Merrynewon's existing aluminum packaging portfolio (bottles, cans, tubes, foil pouches) into a dual-material matrix. Brands now source both materials from a single supplier, sharing the same customization toolkit — screen printing, spray coating, embossing, labeling, and electroplating— with consistent quality control and consolidated logistics.

Market context

The move responds to accelerating demand: the global glass packaging market is projected at USD 72.7 billion in 2026 [Fortune Business Insights], while supplements and nutrition packaging is estimated at USD 33.0 billion [Grand View Research], both growing at roughly 5%+ CAGR.

"With PPWR now in full application and the PFAS ban live, brand owners are under real deadline pressure. Our glass line isn't just a new product — it's a compliance-ready answer, backed by the same manufacturing discipline and customization capability we've built across our aluminum portfolio." said by the product manager of Merrynewon
