GEKA and Axilone launch hybrid metal-plastic Symbiosis bottle at Luxe Pack Monaco
Beauty packaging supplier GEKA, part of Swiss group medmix, has partnered with luxury cosmetics packaging maker Axilone to launch Symbiosis, a bottle concept combining GEKA's injection blow moulding with an Axilone aluminium outer shell. The concept was shown at Luxe Pack Monaco, and GEKA said a next-generation version with a stronger sustainability focus will follow at Cosmopack Bologna in 2027.
Why this mattersPairing injection blow moulding with an aluminium overshell lets prestige beauty suppliers offer hybrid formats without brands sourcing plastic and metal parts separately.
