Bonuderm’s Zero Waste Soaps with Sustainable Packaging
Share
At Bonuderm we care deeply about your skin, just as much as we care about our planet. From day one, we set out to make natural, zero waste soaps that feel good and do good. We always knew there was one big piece we couldn’t overlook about our ethical soaps and products: our packaging.
We asked ourselves a simple but important question:
“What’s the point of gentle and clean beauty if it’s harming our planet?”
This question really pushed us to take a closer look at every box, label, and wrapper we use. What came out of that journey is something we’re very proud of, which is sustainable packaging and zero waste soaps that puts the planet first, without compromising quality or beauty.
We're so passionate about reducing plastic waste that we're on a mission to eliminate 100,000 to 400,000 plastic bottles from the waste stream by 2030. Each bar replaces one to four plastic bottles. Our customers often tell us they've replaced three to four because our soaps are so versatile. There's something for everyone. Even couples with different skin needs either share a bar or each have their own, embracing simplicity and zero waste together.
Let’s walk through how we’re doing it and why it matters.
Why Zero Waste Soaps Are a Big Deal
Think about this: the world produces over 300 million tons of plastic every year, and a huge chunk of that comes from packaging that is just used once and then tossed. Sadly, a lot of it ends up in landfills or floating in the ocean, polluting our ecosystems and harming wildlife. You have probably seen videos or read articles online that show our increasingly difficult reality.
The beauty industry in particular, has a worrying, but reversible (thankfully) packaging problem. Glossy boxes, plastic wraps, layers of filler it all looks nice, but the environmental cost is just too high.
That’s where we decided to take a stand and truly make a difference with plastic free soap.
Making a Difference with Sustainable Packaging and Zero Waste Soaps
We didn’t want to be just another “eco-friendly” brand with a green label that misled customers. We wanted our actions to back up our words. So we rolled up our sleeves and redesigned our packaging from the ground up. Here’s how we’re making our soaps as planet-friendly as they are skin-friendly:
1. We are Creating Plastic Free Soap with Small and Compostable Wrappers
We say no to plastic film and foil! Every bar of Bonuderm soap is wrapped in 100% compostable paper. It's made from responsibly sourced materials and printed with eco-friendly inks, which are much safer for the environment than petroleum-based ones.
When you're ready to use your gentle, zero waste soaps, just toss the wrappers in your home compost or paper recycling bin. No microplastics. No waste. Just a clean, safe return to nature.
2. We Use Recycled & Recyclable Shipping Materials
When your Bonuderm order arrives in the mail, it comes in a fully recyclable cardboard box made from recycled paper.
Recycled materials reduce waste, lower carbon emissions, and keep packaging out of landfills.
3. We Believe in No-Fuss, No-Frills Design
We love minimalism especially when it’s good for the planet. Instead of flashy, oversized packaging, we use just what’s needed to protect the soap and get it to you safely. Our designs are simple, clean, and designed with intention.
4. We use Eco-Friendly Shipping Filler
We’ll never use plastic bubbles or styrofoam. Instead, we ship our products using biodegradable fillers like recycled shredded paper, compostable liners, recycled paper. They do the job without harming the planet. You can even toss them in your compost pile! If we ever receive plastic fillers from our suppliers, we don’t throw them away. We reuse them to reduce waste.
5. Reusable Ideas & Refill Plans
While most of our packaging is designed to be recycled or composted, we also encourage you to use your creativity! Our customers may repurpose our soap boxes into drawer sachets, organizers, and even gift tags.
We’re Not Perfect, But We’re Committed
We’ll be honest: switching to sustainable packaging (zero waste soaps) it hasn’t been easy. Eco-friendly materials can cost more, and they’re sometimes harder to source. But to us, the extra effort is 100% worth it.
Every time you buy from Bonuderm, you're helping us support:
- Cleaner oceans
- Less landfill waste
- Safer production methods
- And a more sustainable future for all
We’re constantly researching new materials and improving how we package and ship. From mushroom-based boxes to plant-based glues, we’re always looking for better ways to make ethical soaps.
Why It’s Not Just About Us, it’s About You, Too
Sustainability is a team effort. We do our part by creating eco-conscious products but it’s you, our amazing customers, who make the real impact by choosing them.
When you support Bonuderm, you're choosing:
- Products that are kind to your skin and the Earth
- A brand that walks the walk, not just talks the talk
- A cleaner, healthier future for your kids, your pets, and the planet
So really, this isn’t just about packaging. It’s about a shared belief that what we do today shouldn't hurt tomorrow.
Let's Make It an Eco-Conscious Movement
When you unwrap a bar of Bonuderm soap, we hope you feel good knowing it’s wrapped with care not just for your skin, but for the planet too.
Together, we’re proving that packaging can be beautiful and responsible. And that clean skin should never come at the cost of a dirty Earth.
So from all of us at Bonuderm, we thank you for being part of this journey with us. Because when we all choose better, the future looks a whole lot brighter!
