Localizing The Plan Towards Sustainability
Working hand in hand to become a zero-waste organization, Colgate-Palmolive Philippines invites Filipino
homes to create a healthy and sustainable future - starting with our own home.
Our Home:
Build a culture of sustainable living among Colgate-Palmolive employees
Every Home:
Drive sustainability in every home with the power of our brands
Our Communities:
Help to uplift the lives of the people and the community through meaningful partnerships
Planet Home:
Safeguard our planet and reduce our footprint and impact on the environment
As a first step, Colgate-Palmolive Philippines is moving into
recycle-ready packaging, starting with Palmolive® sachets and cartons.
Introducing Palmolive®
Recycle-Ready Packaging
HAIR CARE SACHETS AND SOAP SACHETS
We have transitioned to a mono-material - a packaging type with only one form of plastic which makes our sachets ready for recycling.
The Resin ID Code Logo and What It Means
The number on the logo is called a Resin ID Code. It indicates the type of plastic material that the packaging is made of. A material classified as Resin Identification Code 5 is made from polypropylene and recyclable in a stream that collects and reprocesses the flexible form of this material.
SOAP CARTON
Did you know: We use paper with high-recycled content (90%). These recycle-ready cartons are non-laminated, making it possible to re-process.
OUR INITIATIVE
We are working on increasing acceptability of this packaging in the recycling stream by building partnerships with recycling and upcycling organizations.
Committed to environment and product safety
All of the ingredients we use in our products are safe for people and the environment. We’re listening and formulating our products with your feedback and concerns in mind to keep earning your confidence.
Committed to Responsible Sourcing
We are committed to sourcing materials and services responsibly, meaning with the goal of not causing harm to, or exploiting, people or the environment. To support our commitment to Responsible Sourcing we focus on four key pillars: protection of the environment, ethical labour practices, the health & safety of people, and business integrity.
Responsibly Made
Our products are made at Colgate-Palmolive facilities that are increasing energy and water efficiency, driving towards zero waste, and adhering to ethical labour practices at every location in the world in which we operate.
TAKE PART IN BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
Colgate-Palmolive Philippines is committed to taking part in a more sustainable lifestyle -- for the people, communities, and the planet - and we’re working on building partnerships with key organizations to move towards achieving our sustainability goals.
