I’ve been using shampoo bars for years. It’s a great way to start the package free journey!…

A great tip Olivia and there are so many of these bars to choose from now so you can get a product that is both quality and so much kinder to the environment.

I’m envious of your extensive collection here Olivia! What’s also great to see is that with the rising increase of shampoo & body/face wash bars on the market, they are created with more natural ingredients. When we use ‘standard’ shampoos, as it leaves our hair, the chemicals are sent down the drain and out into the water supply. And (quoting what I found online) the chemicals are then often found in a variety of environments such as wastewater, surface water, sediment, groundwater, and drinking water!…

Such a good idea and such a simple change thank you for the prompt…

so I also use shampoo bars but the challenge I have is finding a good conditioner bar…any suggestions olivia.grimes@colart.com ?…

trying to reduce plastic too I’ve just bought some dissolvable laundry sheets by Earth Breeze …not sure how they will work but I’ll let you know!! I really liked the fact that you can choose which charity you would like them to contribute to as a result of your purchase.…

Thanks for drawing this to our attention, Benjamin Von Wong is an incredible artist / engineer all of his projects really drive the message of the need to be sustainable…

an ever important topic. I was lucky enough to be involved in a call which olivia.grimes@colart.com initiated with a company that might be able to help us in our recycling odyssey. The positive that I took from that conversation was how the external partner mentioned: ‘it is not us using plastic or creating plastic that causes the problem, it is just because we’re rubbish at disposing it properly’. If that is true, the challenge becomes so much more manageable. I truly believe that we are all capable of finding solutions, if the incentive is right. Let’s continue our journey to find ways to reduce our negative footprint on this planet and I for one am very excited about the possible solutions Ajita, Olivia, Cris and team can come up with! …

great initiative

Thank you for sharing this Carole. Great to hear the big involvement with the idea box (which can be seen as an analogue think tank) and really cool to hear what’s happening around the business (after China update now France). Who is next?…
