We're certified plastic neutral
Although we've stopped tons of plastic from polluting the planet, sadly some things are out of our control. So we're firm believers in taking responsibility for what we can't reduce in other ways. That's why we've joined rePurpose Global. Through our Plastic Neutral Certification, we help fund and support sustainable waste management projects that recover and remove as much plastic waste from the environment as we use in our packaging.
Among these initiatives lies Sueño Azul, supporting a cooperative of waste workers who have revolutionized waste management practices in Bogotá, Colombia.
Every Cleancult product you buy removes the equivalent of one plastic bottle from ocean-bound waste. Pretty clean, right?
