REDUCING SINGLE WASTE PLASTIC. At Medik8, we reduce our environmental footprint at every opportunity. We already run our building on 100% renewable energy sources, are switching our professional packaging to post-consumer recycled packaging and use FSC certified card for all of our cartons, which means it has been sourced from well-managed forests or recycled sources. We take every step possible to try and actively make our business more sustainable, one step at a time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

A SMALL CHANGE FOR GOOD⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a busy skincare brand with an on-site lab, we are constantly looking for ways for us to reduce our single-use plastic waste. We used to use plastic weighing boats in our labs every day. Our formulators used them to weigh out ingredients for our brand new formulations. Unfortunately, to avoid contamination, these weighing boats have to be thrown away after one use. We’ve recently switched our plastic weighing boats to biodegradable bamboo weighing boats. The bamboo boats are 100% compostable and biodegradable to help us reduce our single-use plastic output on a day-to-day basis.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’s a small step in the right direction. Leave any tips for reducing your single use plastic consumption below, we’d love to hear.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
