Unveiling a New Brand Look & Feel – Premium Packaging Featuring Future-Conscious Materials.
Eva NYC introduces new refined packaging, offering improved navigation and usability of the bestselling portfolio.
- NEW Future-Conscious Premium Packaging: Eva NYC transitions packaging from 25% recycled aluminum to a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled plastic (PCR), reducing total greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 30%, and is curbside recyclable. The brand chose specific types of PCR materials that have the ability to go back into the supply chain after being recycled.
- Enhanced User Experience: The new packaging was designed to provide the consumer with the optimum value and best user experience in and out of the shower. Eva NYC’s new shampoos and conditioners are offering 10% more product in a soft matte, translucent and squeezable bottle, which showcases their clean formulas and enables consumers to use every last drop.
- Elevating Shelf Presence with Excellence and Transparency: Each product range is driven by a color palette inspired by the hero ingredients within the formulation. The curated collections were designed to simplify portfolio navigation and enhance findability at shelf.
