Anatomy Of Waterwise Packaging Series: Waterwise Bottles and Wrappers
Waterwise bottles are key to our mission of eliminating single-use plastic packaging. We’ve designed all of our bottles and containers to be reusable and refillable, so you just buy the bottles or containers once and refill for life! Our bottles and containers don’t use any single-use plastic, helping to divert up to 100 billion single-use plastic bottles from landfills and oceans. So, what are our bottles made of? We’ll break down the materials used to make our refillable bottles and containers.
What Are Waterwise Handwash Bottles Made Of?
Our handwash bottles are designed as a reusable, refillable system. Our Handwash bottles are all made from Aluminum. We chose aluminum because it’s durable and designed for reuse. It’s shatter-resistant and lightweight compared to glass, making it easy to carry around your home while you’re cleaning. It is BPA-free, antimony-free and contains no VOCs or phthalates.
Are Waterwise Bottles Recyclable?
Yes, hand soap bottles, and laundry tins are recyclable. However, all of our bottles and containers are designed for continuous reuse. If you do find yourself needing to discard of your bottles for any reason, they are recyclable. We’re happy to provide you with a shipping label to send back your bottles to be sure they are recycled properly.
What Are Waterwise Tablet Wrappers Made Of?
Our tablet wrapper is paper based and has an interior lining that is made of thin layers of aluminum and kraft paper, which are used to preserve the tablet.
Because our tablets are shipped in dry format, we are able to use paper-based packaging, helping us cut down on another source of single-use plastic.
How Do I Dispose Of Waterwise Tablet Wrappers?
The tablet wrapper has a paper exterior and a thin aluminum interior. The aluminum layer is thin enough that it is in fact compostable. It can be composted and is also biodegradable. If you've purchased from Waterwise and live in India, you can send us your wrappers and we'll compost them for you. Just email us at contact@waterwise.co.in and we can send you a return label to ship your wrappers back to us.
