Great Hair Doesn’t Have to Cost the Earth: Synergy and Sustainability
What are we doing at Synergy Hair to be sustainable?
Sustainability isn’t just a one-off decision at Synergy Hair, it’s something we continue to build into the way we do business every day. In our online orders we’ve been proud to use POLLAST!C mailers which help us reduce our environmental impact while still delivering the quality our customers expect to keep their order safe and secure.
What is POLLAST!C?
POLLAST!C are courier bags made from 100% recycled Ocean Bound Plastic pollution. The pollution is collected from coastal communities throughout Southeast Asia where it is at risk of entering our oceans. By giving this plastic a second life, we’re helping stop pollution before it reaches our waterways, turning waste into something purposeful. By continuing to use POLLAST!C, we’re helping to:
- Reduce our reliance on virgin plastic
- Cut down carbon emissions
- Remove plastic waste from vulnerable coastal regions
How much waste have we helped to remove?
With initiatives like this we have already helped remove nearly 2000 kilograms of plastic pollution while reducing overall environmental impact, proof that consistent choices really do add up. At the heart of it, this is about more than packaging. It’s about doing our part and making choices we can stand behind.
“We chose POLLAST!C because it gave us a practical way to reduce our impact without compromising on quality.” Synergy Hair Marketing Manager, Rosie Stanford shares.
What other sustainability initiatives have we implemented?
This has also influenced the other packaging supplies we use including, reusable cardboard boxes and our P10 ECO GREEN bubble wrap which is made from 30% pre-consumer recycled content, offering a more sustainable choice that’s still keeps our products safe. As the bubble wrap is manufactured from Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), it is also fully recyclable through the Soft Plastics Recycling Scheme.
Just like anything worth doing well, sustainability is an ongoing journey. We’re always looking for ways to improve. Finding smarter, more responsible ways to operate while continuing to deliver for our customers.
