‼️ It's important that consumers are actually refilling and reusing these bottles! If not, it's just an extra heavy pack on the shelf. We like that ‘reusable bottle’ is clearly highlighted on the front of pack to help with education

The refill revolution is here! @beautyandplanet launched their first aluminum shampoo and conditioner bottles earlier this quarter…and they’re refillable!

[Impacked @Impackedpkging]

‼️ Aluminum is usually heavier than plastic, so we're thinking about how the higher weight will affect the carbon footprint from shipping.

What else to know:
☑️ The first generation of the product looks to be using conventional, not bio-based plastic.

☑️ While recyclable in theory, educating consumers on how and where to recycle will be critical since local facilities may not be adequately equipped to manage.

Impressive progress by #Paboco - the Paper Bottle Company, launching the first prototype of a recyclable and bio-based paper bottle. 🙌

[Impacked @Impackedpkging]

What we like:
✅ Strong core design objective around sustainability from the start

✅ Uses FSC certified wood fibres from responsibly managed forests

✅ Versatility, durability, and performance comparable to conventional materials

#Smarties is unboxing imagination by switching to recyclable paper packaging – the first global confectionery brand to do so. ♻️🌏
We’re now another step closer to reaching 100% recyclable or reusable packaging by 2025.
