3rd Prize BIOPOLYMER Award 2025

CMC Consumer Medical Care GmbH (Deutschland)

Innovation: Microplastic-free peeling pad

Microplastic-free peeling pad with a special peeling coating made of biodegradable polymer and natural wax.

Jury statementThe make-up removal pad is a product that has a high market penetration and is used thousands of times every day

This development is a positive contribution to reducing the release of microplastics into the environment. The pad is a drop-in solution for an established product, which should enable rapid market penetration with the biodegradable version. We would like to see the product made entirely from renewable raw materials in the future, even though its biodegradability is very good.
