We all know that plastic is causing a huge problem for our planet. You, no doubt, want to do your part to make the world a better place, day in and day out, but we totally get it – committing to an eco-friendly lifestyle is pretty expensive, time-consuming and hard to stick to... Are we right?
It all began way back when two environmentally-conscious best friends became housemates (oh hey, that’s us – Nat & Ruby).
Like two peas in a - ahem - pod, we shared a deep passion for sustainability, and after a few months of living together, we were horrified at the amount of household waste we were producing every week.
We were in the middle of popping a washing pod in our dishwasher when it dawned on us: What if we created pods for hand wash?
Just like that, The Daily Routine was born.
So here’s the thing… Plastic was designed to be used over and over again, but sadly most plastic is only used once, and then thrown away causing all kinds of problems for our health and environment.
In the last year, a staggering 84% of plastic ended up in landfills, and only 13% was recycled.
By 2050, it’s predicted that the ocean will contain more plastic by weight than fish.
You may be ingesting up to 5 grams of plastic each week thanks to microplastics in our water!
The more plastic we use, the more fossil fuels we need, and in turn, we exacerbate climate change.
A more planet-positive alternative to your everyday essentials for an effortlessly sustainable daily routine. Here’s how we’re helping you put this into practice...
The Keeper Bottle has been created using post-consumer recycled plastic (PCR): a sustainable material that is still safe for your family to use in high-risk areas like the bathroom. PCR is also lighter in weight to ship; less shipping weight means lower carbon emissions.
Most personal care products on the market are made up of around 80% water. We prefer to travel light. By not shipping any water, a resource that comes out of your taps at home, we have lowered our emissions in transportation by 80%.
Your Daily Routine products are beautiful on the inside, and out. Our packaging is completely compostable and biodegradable, so not only are we reducing household waste, but we’re also helping to keep the worms in your garden well-fed, and mother nature happy.Â
We think you have enough on your plate without having to worry about which chemicals are going on your skin. Our hand wash pods are created without using any parabens or sulphates, so you can lather up worry-free with our plant-based formulations.
By presenting you with a sustainable brand that’s been created with community feedback, we’re changing the personal care and beauty industry. By trusting in our eco-friendly brand, you are helping future generations of Australians to live a more sustainable, healthier life.
Thank you, Pod-lovers, for making the choice to do better for the world.
