As consumers we usually think of water as an infinite resource. In reality only about 1% of the Earth’s water is fresh, drinkable water that we depend on for survival. [1] It is deeply troubling that we as humans are polluting it at a disturbing rate. Water is threatened by pollutants such as agricultural pesticides, the fossil fuel industry, manufacturing waste, and even pollutants from everyday consumer products, such as body wash. It doesn’t matter where you live the threat of water pollution affects us all.
There is an entire industry of body wash and other personal care products that millions of us use every day. We hardly think twice about them after we use them. While on the surface these products may seem harmless they can still have an impact on our waterways. Many of these products are made with non-biodegradable chemicals and are packaged in virgin plastic containers. Seventh Generation Body Wash is packaged in containers made with 70% Ocean Bound plastic to help reduce plastic waste that ends up in our streams, lakes, and oceans. As always please recycle any plastic materials responsibly.
Seventh Generation is committed to changing the way that we think about sustainability and personal care.
[1] 1% of the planet’s water is fresh water that is accessible, not trapped in glaciers. 2.5% of the planet’s water is freshwater (i.e. not salt water)
How to Use
Usage
What is the other 30% in the 70% OceanBound plastic bottle?
We have ambition to ultimately achieve 100% OceanBound plastic in our bottles, but unfortunately during our testing of 100% HDPE (High-density polyethylene) OceanBound bottles, when exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures over time, the bottles cracked and caused leakage of product. Since we ship throughout the US and throughout the seasons, we didn’t want to create this potential issue for consumers We are always striving to improve our plastic sourcing using renewable plant-based plastic like sugarcane or alternative post consumer recycled plastic options!
What makes your body wash and deodorant “water-friendly”?
Our formulas are 100% biodegradable and are made with readily biodegradable materials and are over 95% USDA certified bio-based.
