recycle material

Brand uses plastic for most products packaging.
We have asked them for further clarity on their recycling policies and plastic content

Parent Brand has announced participation in Loop™ – an innovative waste-free shopping and delivery model for reusable packaging innovations and refillable product formats.
However, Post-consumer collection of packaging components is not available in all areas where products are sold.
In developing and third world countries all waste & plastic ends up in landfills.

What this means is, that larger Corporations like Unilever ( their parent brand) have an EPR mandate (by law) to ensure all empties are collected and recycled in a proper way. Though this is done in a lot of countries, unfortunately in developing and third world countries all waste & plastic ends up in landfills. Primarily due to poor regulatory laws and bigger Corporations shrugging their responsibility when convenient.
