We don’t want to contribute to the enormous waste management problem the Earth has. There are ‘continents’ of plastic floating in our ocean.
At Valor Organics, we carefully consider the packaging of our products, and recycle wherever possible.
Recycle wherever possible
How we package your order
No extra packaging
We choose not to purchase and use further packaging as a marketing tool where a product is already in a container – e.g. the shaving soap and beard balms.
Upcycled & reused
We upcycle and reuse clean boxes, bubble wrap and packaging that we collect from businesses who receive a lot of excess packaging that they would otherwise throw away – tons of it, in fact.
Recycled cardboard for refills
On our shaving soap refills we use a recycled cardboard box, to avoid damage in transit.
Recyclable glass & PET labels
We use recyclable glass wherever possible, and our labels are recyclable PET.
New packaging is made and discarded every day, and this could be greatly minimised if companies stopped buying it for convenience.
Sure, it takes a little time to collect others’ clean packaging, but it’s so worth it.

Packaging with a second life

Clean boxes
A ‘second life’
So you may receive a product wrapped in bubble wrap, or newspaper as padding, but we are just giving it a ‘second life’ – we hope you agree.
Pass it on
We encourage you to reuse and recycle the wrapping too, and so on. Plastic lasts a long time.
A note on our foaming products
Our foaming products are packaged in recyclable PET containers, as we have been unable to find glass vessels which will fit the foaming mechanism… still looking, though.
Recycle wherever possible
