Bioattributed contact lens packaging

TotalEnergies (Courbevoie, France) contributes to the CooperVision’s (Pleasanton, CA, USA) “Plastic Made Better” programme by implementing certified renewable polypropylene through a mass balance approach in certain CooperVision blister packs.

The bio-attributed polymer is derived from the processing of renewable feedstock, primarily sunflower and rapeseed oils, at TotalEnergies’ bio-refinery in La Mède (France).

Using the mass balance approach allows TotalEnergies to allocate the environmental benefits of renewable feedstocks across the value chain. The ISCC Plus-certified polypropylene enables CooperVision to improve the environmental footprint of their packaging without altering its original materials or compromising performance.

ISCC Plus-certified Polypropylene is part of TotalEnergies’ RE:newable range. According to a cradle-to-gate Life Cycle Analysis conducted by TotalEnergies, RE:newable Polypropylene grades can allow a reduction of 2.3 kg CO₂eq/kg of polypropylene when replacing its fossil-based equivalent from TotalEnergies.
