Supporting Sustainable Practices: Why Choosing All-Natural Body Lotions Matters

Supporting Sustainable Practices: Why Choosing All-Natural Body Lotions Matters

At our core, we believe that natural products and self-care go hand in hand with preserving the beauty of our planet. As a community, we have a shared responsibility to choose products that help make our Earth a better place. It's not just about our business, it's about doing our part for the environment.

One fundamental aspect of our philosophy is minimizing our environmental impact. Here's how we're putting this philosophy into action:

1. Recycled Office Materials: 

We've embraced eco-conscious practices within our office space. Recycled paper is the staple of our office supplies, and we've drastically reduced our reliance on printed documents by shifting towards digital filing systems. We understand that every little effort counts toward a more sustainable future.

2. Eco-Packaging: 

We invest in recycled materials and eco-friendly packaging because we believe in the power of responsible consumer choices. Our commitment to using eco-packaging isn't just about aesthetics; it's about making choices that support the longevity of our planet.

Sustainable Packaging Materials: 

When it comes to packaging our products, we've partnered with environmentally responsible companies. Our postal satchels, hexwrap, and bubble mailers are sourced from HeroPack, boasting Home and Commercial compostable certifications.

Recycled Bottles: 

Pole Physics bottles are 100% rHDPE (post consumer recycled HDPE) ie our local community milk bottles & soft drink containers repurposed at a local centre into a reusable material that is the injection moulded to make our bottles (big & small). rHDPE is recycling HDPE material (high density polyethylene) sourced from post-consumer recycled milk jugs and household cleaner bottles.

Australians throw out 3.5 million tonnes of plastic each year, but currently only around 10 per cent of it is recycled. The rest is either burned, buried or shipped overseas. We don't need to create more plastic. We need to reuse existing waste - make it useable & reuse it, again & again, and again... we are committed to using recycled materials for all our lotions. 

Responsible Boxes and Labels: 

Our boxes for our Travel Mini Sets and labels for sealing those boxes come from NoIssue. These kraft boxes are crafted from 100% recycled kraft material and printed with earth-friendly inks. They are 100% compostable and recyclable, aligning perfectly with our commitment to sustainable shipping practices.

Eco-Friendly Stickers and Postcards: 

Even the smallest details matter. Our custom paper stickers are FSC certified, use acid-free paper, and soy-based inks. As for our postcard inserts, they're printed on non-laminated/uncoated cardstock by a local printer, making them 100% recyclable.

3. Local Production: 

To reduce our carbon footprint and support local industry, we've chosen to keep everything close to home. From our bottles and lotions to labels and warehousing, everything is based in the same state. This means less transportation, reduced fuel consumption, and fewer resources expended.

In a world where sustainability is not just an option but a necessity, we believe that every choice we make as a business matters. We're dedicated to reducing our environmental footprint, embracing recycled materials, and partnering with eco-conscious suppliers. Together, we can create a future where waste is minimized, resources are reused, and the planet thrives. Thank you for joining us on this journey toward a greener, more sustainable world.
