There are many environmentally friendly alternatives, but
What is best - aluminum, cardboard, glass or recycled plastic?
Aluminum is a very durable material, but a lot of energy is used during production. The production of glass is also energy-intensive, and it is heavy to transport. Recycling plastic has a lower environmental impact than producing new plastic from oil, but it is not completely without environmental impact. Cardboard is a fragile material and must have a plastic coating to be waterproof.
Therefore, we have concluded that there is no optimal solution. There will always be something positive and something negative when choosing packaging material. The most important thing we can do as consumers is to reuse and recycle.
Recycled plastic
Refill, reuse, recycle
Plastic is an extraordinary substance with many useful uses. It is pointless to use it once it has had such a long life. That is why we have developed the Elm Eco-Conscious Refill Concept . With 100% recycled 1 Liter bottles you don't have to throw away your 290 ml.
Recyclable materials
It is important to us that the packaging we use is made from renewable energy, does not have environmentally harmful properties and can be recycled/reclaimed.
We have made a proven choice not to have our products in boxes or make small samples of products to greatly reduce the use of packaging and waste.
