Peach not Plastic Personal Care Packaging

Peach not Plastic Personal Care Packaging

Grove’s five-year mission to move “Beyond Plastic” aims to help solve the single-use plastic problem across these categories. To further their mission, Grove Collaborative launched Peach, an efficacious plant-based & 100% plastic-free personal care brand with no compromise on product performance. Peach is on a mission to eliminate plastic from personal care. Historically, bar soaps have carried a reputation of being boring, ineffective and underwhelming, especially in the hair care category as consumers have had to compromise performance for sustainability. With Peach, we are completely changing the way consumers feel about bar formats and aim to educate them and change habits by showcasing that they can still get high performance while choosing to live sustainably. Peach’s shampoos, conditioners, face washes, and hand & body washes eliminate anywhere from one to three plastic bottles per bar!

Peach packaging is made from 100% recycled content paper board (lower carbon footprint), and is fully recyclable and FSC®-certified. They use UV inks that emit zero VOCs and have zero solvents. UV printing is a green technology, and it's safer for the environment and leaves an almost zero carbon footprint. Each product package is clearly marked with a How2Recycle symbol with instructions on how to properly recycle to curb packaging waste. In less than 1 year, Peach is expected to save an estimated 100,000 pounds of plastic that otherwise would have entered the land ll. By replacing traditionally packaged skin and hair care products with Peach, consumers can save 4.44 pounds of plastic per year per person. Peach is also made without SLS, SLES, silicones, parabens, phthalates, synthetic dyes, and is made with 100% natural fragrances. To ensure only the highest-quality formulas, the manufacturing process was also carefully selected. For example, Peach creates its hair care bars in small, artisanal batches to ensure the process uses very little energy and is low-waste. Every Peach purchase helps us support our nonprofit partner, 5 Gyres Institute, in our shared mission to reduce plastic pollution globally. They are on a mission to eliminate plastic from consumer’s personal care routine, and we are starting with the shower!
