New Refill Packaging for Our Prebiotic Deodorant

Posted by IT Admin on

What do you think of this idea?

We'd send all Prebiotic Deodorant refills in our beeswax foodwraps, which would:

1- Reduce emissions of shipping glass (glass is heavy and awkward to ship).
2- Give you a 100% zero waste solution for our deodorant.
3- If it works for deodorant, we'd also try this concept for other refills

Watch this vid to see how it would work and let me know in the comments below and CLICK HERE if you'd like to pick up some of our prebiotic deodorant.

NOTE: THIS WEEK (Feb 3rd - 10th '24) we will be adding some beeswax wrapped DEO REFILLS to random orders to test out this concept!

UPDATE On Microwave / melting:  You wouldn't have to microwave the deo to melt it.  Minimum heat in a stainless pot would be fine.  And heating up the deo doesn't impact its efficacy as that's how we get it into the jars in the first place - you melt and pour it.

  • Yes please!! I like your deodorant but I stopped buying it because of the accumulation of little glass jars. I love the beeswax option.

  • I think it’s a great idea, though I wondered, as another commenter mentioned, whether the deodorant would melt during shipping, especially in the warmer months.

  • Yes please! I love the little jars but can only use so many of them. And I do use them! ☺️

  • How warm does it get in transit? I love the idea. Can you reprocess the wax tubes from other products? I have a pile of them!

  • We live on a small island, so even packaging/storing in glass is the reason we currently do not buy the deodorant. We can not have any waste, only products that will compost back to Mother Earth.

    I would assume others would appreciate no glass even if they do have a recycling program.

  • Great idea! Love that you are using a wrap that can be reused for another purpose!!!! So smart! Keep developing these great new ideas!

    Maggie on

  • It sounds like a good idea to me. Testing it with customers is a good idea too.

    Pat on

  • Using the wraps for shipping is a great idea; however, if the deodorant melts at common shipping temperatures during warmer months, it may be a cool weather option only.

  • Would love a Vegan alternative.

  • I would be in favor of this for the refills. Saving glass and shipping costs is a great idea.
