With the launch of recycled plastic handle toothbrushes and recyclable toothpaste tubes this year, Colgate-Palmolive intends to create a sustainable alternative to help make plastic a part of the circular economy
Colgate-Palmolive has launched ‘Colgate RecyClean’. It is created keeping in mind a healthy smile and taking care of the planet. The toothbrush bristles are plant derived and are BPA free while the handle is made from 100% recycled plastic. Its smart design features include a premium cylindrical handle with a skidproof thumb grip, and the multi-height bristles offer a deep clean.
Commenting on this innovation, Arvind Chintamani, Vice President, Marketing, Colgate-Palmolive India, said, “We continue to innovate towards our commitment of reimagining a healthier world. Colgate ReCyclean Toothbrush is an innovation that would’ve felt impossible a few years back. The handle is made from 100% recycled plastic and the bristles fully from plant-based materials! All this while giving you a terrific mouth clean and brushing experience. We are proud of this addition to our sustainable portfolio of products and promise to keep innovating!”
Colgate-Palmolive India has been working on its sustainability journey over the last decade and has been consistently making efforts to reduce its carbon footprint, by migrating to renewable energy, taking steps towards water conservation, and leading in waste reduction. With the launch of recycled plastic handle toothbrushes and recyclable toothpaste tubes this year, Colgate-Palmolive intends to create a sustainable alternative to help make plastic a part of the circular economy.
