CM Shredders produces a line of various industrial shredders ready to handle all sorts of cosmetic waste. Cosmetic waste is comprised of multiple different materials such as paper, plastic, and glass. Common waste from the cosmetics industry includes packaging for skin care, hair care, as well as personal care and beauty products such as make-up cases, containers like shampoo and conditioner bottles, flexible plastic packaging such as color packets, flexible plastic tubes, and complex closures. All refuse from the cosmetics industry can be processed through CM recycling equipment to be reprocessed. Plastics from the cosmetics industry can be reused, which means they will be granulated, pelletized, melted down, and then molded into other hard plastic items. Many modern forms of beauty packaging contain complex materials that cannot be separated or processed by most municipal recycling centers. Cosmetic packaging such as mirrored glass, cardboard sleeves, paper inserts, lipstick cases, lip gloss tubes, mascara tubes, eye shadow cases, foundation packaging, eyeliner pencils need to go to a specific recycler and sometimes it does not make it there, even though several of the major cosmetic and beauty companies have their own recycling programs. If you are interested in closing the loop on cosmetics waste with a dependable shredding system, CM Shredders has an industrial shredder for you.
