SmartCare Soft-Touch scores 18 out of 20 for "Made for Recycling"
ADA Cosmetics' SmartCare Soft-Touch dispenser scored 18 out of 20 points in Interzero's independent "Made for Recycling" assessment. For a hotel, it is recyclability evidence it can cite.
Interzero assesses how well packaging can actually be recycled in existing collection and sorting systems, country by country. Qualifying SmartCare Soft-Touch variants carry the "Made for Recycling" label in the European markets covered.
The result comes down to construction. The bottle and cap are polypropylene, so the dispenser is mono-material. Light-coloured variants (for example Hydro Touch, Yon-Ka and The Skinfluencer) use labels without carbon-black pigment, which would block optical sorting. Dark variants will move to colours detectable by near-infrared sorters by the first quarter of 2027.
The other SmartCare arguments stand. Hygiene was confirmed by an independent study at Rhine-Waal University. The bottle is swapped in its holder in five seconds, and mounting is theft-proof. Together with the Refillution refill system, ADA cites up to 95% less plastic than small portions, according to the manufacturer.
Why it matters now. From 27 September 2026, every environmental claim on a hotel's website or materials needs evidence behind it (GEO no. 18/2026). An independent assessment with a score and a source is exactly the kind of document that supports the wording "recyclable dispensers". More in our guide to ESG reporting for hotels.
