KANEBO selects Eastman Cristal™ One IM812 for luxury overcap packaging

Premium cosmetics brand chose recyclable material for an overcap that delivers aesthetics, strength and sustainability.

KINGSPORT, Tenn., Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Prestigious Japanese cosmetics brand KANEBO has selected Eastman Cristal™ One IM812 specialty PET resin for the overcap of its new Generating Essentials Treatment Lotion.

“Rooted in KANEBO’s ‘Progress Care’ philosophy and our message, ‘Going beyond beauty, KANEBO heightens hope,’ this lotion reflects our approach to supporting skin through different stages of life rather than focusing on anti-aging,” said Shinsuke Magai, KANEBO designer. “We wanted the packaging to bring that philosophy to life through a design that conveys both refinement and progression.”

For the thick-walled black overcap, KANEBO needed a material that could meet demanding performance and design requirements, especially given the cap’s heavier construction. Cristal One IM812 met that challenge by passing drop impact testing and maintaining required strength after post-mold painting.

Cristal One IM812 delivered the precise aesthetic KANEBO envisioned: a clean, high-quality black with the right gloss and a subtle transition from opaque black to a more transparent black gradient at the top. This combination of toughness, transparency and color precision helped create a refined premium look without making the package appear overly heavy.

“From an engineering perspective, this packaging required careful alignment of material performance, processing and finish,” said Shota Kawasaki, KANEBO packaging engineer. “We evaluated several candidate materials, and Cristal One IM812 proved to be the best match for our needs.”

This specialty material can be injection molded and is designed to provide high transparency and toughness for premium cosmetic components.

KANEBO selected this specialty PET resin for its sustainability benefits, as it is recyclable in the PET recycling stream. Although compliance with the European Union’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) was not an immediate requirement for a product sold primarily in Asian markets, KANEBO chose to go a step further by adopting a material that aligns with anticipated future regulatory expectations.

Market response has been positive since the lotion’s January 2026 launch, and KANEBO plans to expand use of Cristal One Renew IM812 in upcoming products.

“KANEBO’s adoption of Cristal One IM812 in its product cap is meaningful to Eastman,” said Tara Cary, Eastman marketing manager for cosmetics and personal care packaging. “This commercial example shows how Eastman’s materials can help beauty brands address the challenge of combining sustainability with uncompromised appearance, durability and function.”

Kao, KANEBO’s parent company, has partnered with Eastman for many years. Built through collaboration on Eastman material innovations, the longstanding relationship reflects Kao’s confidence in Eastman’s global technical support and materials expertise for cosmetic packaging that demands premium finishes and reliable performance.

About KANEBO

At the heart of KANEBO’s skin care is a signature cream inspired by Taishi.

Asia Hospitality Sector Poised for Accelerated Investment, Says Questex’s International Hospitality Investment Forum Asia

Regional market strengthens as investors and operators embrace resilient growth strategies

HONG KONG, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Asia’s hospitality sector is entering a new phase of investment activity as domestic consumption recovers and regional travel continues to strengthen, says Questex’s International Hospitality Investment Forum (IHIF) Asia.

Investor Survey Points to Rising APAC Confidence

According to new research by Questex’s Hospitality Investor, the editorial intelligence platform focused exclusively on the hospitality capital markets, investor confidence in Asia Pacific hospitality is strengthening. The survey found that 80% of respondents expect hospitality investment activity across the region to increase significantly over the next 12 months, providing a clear indicator of renewed capital momentum.

That positive outlook is reflected in where investors are focusing their attention. Japan and Southeast Asia ranked joint first as the most attractive hospitality investment destinations in Asia Pacific, followed by Thailand; IHIF Asia’s dedicated Nippon Track will convene senior decision-makers to explore Japan’s hospitality market and outbound investment opportunities.

The research also points to a more disciplined approach to value creation. Lifestyle and experiential hospitality took the majority of the vote, followed by operational efficiency and acquiring undervalued or distressed assets, underlining investor focus on differentiated concepts, performance improvement and value-led opportunities.

Demand-side fundamentals remain central to that outlook, with regional, intra-Asia travellers identified as the strongest driver of hospitality demand growth across Asia Pacific.

“The recovery of domestic hospitality demand and the continued resurgence of regional travel are creating a compelling environment for investment across Asia,” said IB Saravanan, Vice President, Questex Asia. “While geopolitical and market complexities remain important considerations, the sector’s ability to adapt through asset repositioning, operational innovation and capital diversification is opening up significant opportunities for growth.”

The Industry Gathers in Hong Kong to Explore What’s Next for Asia Hospitality

IHIF Asia will take place 16-18 September 2026 at Regent, Hong Kong, bringing together more than 500 investors, owners, operators, developers and hospitality brands to explore the region’s next phase of growth.

Diego Mesa Puyo selected as next GEF CEO and Chairperson

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Global Environment Facility (GEF) Council today announced the selection of Diego Mesa Puyo as the family of funds’ next CEO and Chairperson. Mesa Puyo, an international leader in energy policy, economic development, and sustainability, and former Minister of Energy and Mines from Colombia, will serve an initial term of four years, aligned with the GEF-9 funding period and the last sprint towards critical 2030 environmental goals.

Before his selection as the GEF’s next CEO and Chairperson, Mesa Puyo served as Deputy Chief of the Climate Policy Division of the International Monetary Fund. As Colombia’s Minister of Energy and Mines in the 2018-2022 administration, he led one of Latin America’s most ambitious energy transition agendas, launching market reforms that mobilized more than $3 billion in private investment and accelerated the deployment of variable renewable energy from near-zero levels to one of the fastest-growing clean energy markets in the region. He also played a central role in advancing energy transition and climate action legislation, embedding sustainability objectives in economic and development policy.

“I am deeply honored to serve as the next CEO and Chairperson of the Global Environment Facility at this pivotal moment for the international community,” Mesa Puyo said. “Countries need trusted partners that can help turn ambition into action. Building on the GEF’s remarkable legacy, I look forward to working with the Secretariat, member countries, and partners around the world to achieve environmental and development goals together by integrating solutions, catalyzing investment, and delivering measurable results for people and planet.”

The GEF is the world’s largest public funder for the environment and serves international conventions on biodiversity, climate change, and pollution. Donor countries have pledged an initial $3.9 billion for an ambitious ninth replenishment of the GEF Trust Fund, reflecting a strong commitment to protect and restore nature through multilateral cooperation.

The Global Environment Facility is the world’s family of funds for the environment. As the financial mechanism for six multilateral conventions, it supports countries’ efforts to tackle the root causes of environmental degradation — advancing global goals for nature, climate, and pollution. Over the past three decades, the GEF has been the largest public funder for the environment and provided more than $27 billion in financing, primarily as grants, and mobilized another $155 billion for country-driven priority projects.
