Breaking barriers and setting new standards, CYKLAR has debuted as a genderless, vegan, and cruelty-free bodycare brand that scrutinizes every aspect of its products. Each formula is dermatologist-tested and free from parabens, sulfates, and silicones.
CYKLAR prioritizes sustainability throughout its entire product lifecycle. The brand’s commitment to eco-consciousness extends beyond its formulas to include its packaging. The glass vessel has been thoughtfully designed, with every stage of the product’s life cycle carefully considered. For starters, the recyclable aluminum cap features a BPA-Free PE Removable Insert. The liner is crafted from 100% PCR BPA-Free PP, while the vessel is recyclable glass adorned with a subtle embossed branding. Even the outer carton prioritizes eco-consciousness, made from 100% PCR recyclable paperboard, and printed using soy ink. CYKLAR encourages customers to reimagine and repurpose the vessel, suggesting it as an elegant storage solution for jewelry, mints, salts, cotton swabs, office pins and beyond.
The brand’s dedication to sustainability continues with its upcoming refills, which will be available in compostable packaging through a collaboration with On Repeat. Refills will be launching soon and are housed in two compartments: the outer wallet and the inner pouch and are sized to precisely fill the Body Cream’s jar. The outer wallet is made of compostable FSC certified craft board and printed with vegetable inks in the UK by World Land Trust certified printers. It can be shredded, composted at home, or recycled curbside. The inner pouch is made of a compostable flexible film as an alternative to industry-standard plastic pouches. It holds and seals the formula in a material that sits at the forefront of bio-polymer research. The pouch leaves no trace in soil, sea, or air, breaking down in 32 weeks in home composts or industrial composts.
Founder, Claudia Sulewski, shares, “I dreamt of building a gender-neutral body care company that not only focuses on what ingredients go inside but what’s on the outside as well. We aspire to redefine personal care by closing the loop on waste in our daily routines. CYKLAR’s formulations and packaging go above and beyond to ensure efficacy, experience, inclusivity, and sustainability.”
