All about EQUA CARE packaging

Convenient, easy, and caring for our planet - all at the same time. — EQUACARE

Sustainability is at the core of EQUA CARE.

We wanted to create our brand with the full product life-cycle in mind, from the production, transport, user experience, and the impact that it creates once the product is being disposed of.

Our whole philosophy is wrapped around the idea of complete transparency and true CARE for your well being as well as the planet. This is why our products are refillable and reusable, designed to last you a lifetime. 

What is EQUA CARE dispenser made from?

In a search for a perfect eco-friendly solution, we have researched the carbon footprint of different materials and found out that recycled PET is the most efficient option since no new materials need to be produced in the process. 

So to avoid the production of new plastic – that typically ends up in our landfills – our dispensers are made of 100% recycled PET material from the waste of single-use plastic bottles.

What about the material of our refill bags you may wonder?

We initially chose a biodegradable NatureFlex refill packaging that unfortunately didn’t pass the “crash test” (very low seal quality) and it was also unable to protect the formula in the logistics process.

That's why we decided to implement a short term change in sachet packaging. We have chosen a functional barrier material made from (PET/AL/LDPE) so:

• our powdered products will not be compromised during the logistic/transport process
• our products will have a shelf life of at least 18 months without being compromised
• our products will contribute to at least 80% less CO2 carbon footprint
• our products will in practice make at least 90% less single plastic bottle waste

But we won't stop here! We are striving to make even more upgrades regarding the process of packaging EQUA CARE products with the purpose of lowering the waste percentage even more and improving the ease of recycling of our powder refill sachets.

With EQUA CARE refillable body & home care products you can create 30x less waste by refilling your dispenser over and over again and the refill bags you can simply decompose at home.
