Face care / Skin care / Premium beauty

Skincare packaging
made from the earth.

Agropak's 50ml bio-composite jar is built for beauty and personal care brands that need plastic-free packaging able to survive a fill line, hold a formulation, and carry a premium label. Not a concept. In production today.

93% Bio-Based Carbon Content TÜV SÜD — ASTM D6866 — May 2026
15,492 N Compression Strength CIPET, Bengaluru — May 2026
0.8m Drop Test Passed CIPET, Bengaluru — May 2026
2 yr Shelf Life Validated No degradation observed in testing

The Jar

50ml. Three colourways, nine combinations. One bio-composite material.

The Agropak jar is a 50ml cosmetic jar made from coconut shell powder and bamboo fiber, compression molded into a rigid form with an inner cosmetic-grade barrier coating. It has a screw-thread lid, and outer dimensions that fit standard filling and labelling lines.

The material contains no petroleum plastic. Bio-based carbon content is 93%, independently verified by TÜV SÜD — not a supplier estimate. The jar has been compression-tested to 15,492 N at CIPET, Bengaluru.

From Brands Who Evaluated

Three brands. Three categories. One jar.

We were looking for packaging that reflects where our brand stands — at the intersection of modern science and Ayurveda. Agropak delivered exactly that. Our first 30 customers across 6 European countries hadn't seen anything like it.

As a biodesigner and researcher, I've seen a lot of greenwashing in sustainable packaging. Agropak's different — the material is genuinely innovative, utilizing agricultural byproducts like coconut shell to create a fully functional jar.

I've been searching for a plastic-free jar since 2019. I tried glass, but still had to compromise with a plastic lid. Agropak solved that completely — the jar works effectively with my formulations, and holds up well for the refillable model I've always preferred.

Independent Validation

Every number has a source document.

Bio-based content verified by TÜV SÜD. Compression and drop tests by CIPET. Neither is a claim. Both are available as lab reports.
