Sustainability Journey

Going further for you and the environment.

We aspire to make a difference in the community, and also the environment we live in. Recognising that sustainability is an ongoing journey, we are continuously working on ways to reduce our environmental footprint and asking ourselves how we can do better. With a conscious commitment to fostering a circular economy, we look holistically at the entire value chain of our products to identify areas where we can step in to minimise waste as much as we can. From product formulation and packaging to production, we build sustainability into our operations from start to finish.

Towards Biodegradable Formulation

As we expand on our portfolio of lifestyle and household products, our R&D team works on using natural, plant-derived ingredients and biodegradable formulations that are safe and gentle yet powerful in performance. We leave harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients out of our personal care product range, making it as safe for your skin as it is for the environment.

Transitioning to Sustainable Packaging

We are constantly looking for sustainable packaging alternatives where possible for our paper and bottling products without compromising on the integrity of the formula. To reduce plastic waste, most of our disinfectant liquid products come with refillable solutions which allow for reuse of the regular packaging. It is our aim to offer more eco-forward alternatives and make our packaging recyclable, reusable or compostable in the coming years.

Responsible Manufacturing

As an in-house manufacturer, we oversee the end-to-end production processes, ensuring full quality control at every stage. We only work with partners and suppliers who practice responsible sourcing and are equally committed to conducting their business in a transparent and responsible way.

Highlights

We know there is always room for improvement, and that is why we are taking small but concrete steps to put sustainability front and centre of our business.
