Sustainable Packaging
We made sure we got a great understanding of the environmental impact of packaging waste, so we've ensured that all Sealions packaging is either 100% recyclable or 100% compostable. This initiative allows our customers to enjoy our products while contributing to a healthier planet.
🌿 Did you know? The global beauty and personal care industry produces approximately 120 billion units of packaging annually, much of which is not recyclable and ends up in landfills or oceans.[1]
We're Doing Our Bit… How Can You Help?
Choose Brands That Prioritise Sustainability - Start by supporting companies that are transparent about their environmental practices. Look for packaging that is recyclable, compostable, or made from recycled materials. When you choose products like Sealions Vitamins that are designed with sustainability in mind, you're not just investing in your health, you’re helping to look after the world around us.
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle - It sounds simple as we seem to do it going about our daily lives, but being intentional with your waste can have a great impact. Recycle your supplement packaging properly, reuse containers when you can, and reduce single use plastics in your daily routine. Even remembering to sort your rubbish correctly can significantly cut down what ends up in landfill.
Support Environmental and Community Causes - If you have time on the weekend, volunteer with local clean up groups, donate to charities, or raise awareness through your own platforms. Even small acts such as planting pollinator-friendly flowers, using public transport more often, or educating a friend can lead to bigger change.
🌿Did you know? Recycling materials such as paper, glass, and aluminum significantly reduces the energy required for manufacturing new products. Recycling aluminum saves up to 95% of the energy needed compared to producing it from raw materials.[2]
