Here’s a crazy statistic: Unless change happens, and soon, we are on track to have more plastic than fish in our oceans by 2050 (say what?). Plaine Products is working to combat that statistic by using recyclable aluminum bottles for their product, as well as refilling empty bottles to be reused! If you’re worried about the cleanliness of reusing bottles, don’t fret! They are thoroughly cleaned and sterilized once you send them back to Plaine Products, so they are safe to use again and again and again!
Not only is every bottle refillable and recyclable, the contents are great for the planet, too! Plaine Products is dedicated to being chemical free–so each ingredient and formula is run through the Environmental Working Group’s database to ensure every product is safe and non-toxic.
Plaine Products participates in two powerful environmental certifications and programs: B Corporation Certification and 1% for the Planet. Being a B Corp means that Plaine Products meets rigorous third party standards and are a part of a select community of businesses that are dedicated to making positive social, environmental, and economic changes that impact both the people and the planet. As a member of 1% for the Planet, Plaine Products pledges to give 1% of all of their sales, before any expenses, to environmental organizations that are doing good for the Earth.
Plaine Products strives to be apart of the circular economy where nothing is ever wasted. By investing in non-toxic formulas and refillable bottles, they’re proving that business can be done differently, and with the planet in mind!

Parabens are synthetic chemical preservatives, commonly used in beauty products like shampoo, lotion, and deodorants. Parabens can accumulate in your body, and have been linked to hormonal disruption and reproductive problems. In studies of breast cancer patients, parabens have been found in the tissue of cancerous tumors–yikes! If you want to avoid Parabens in your beauty products, keep an eye out for methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, and ethylparaben in the ingredients list.
Sulfates are synthetic chemical ingredients commonly used in beauty products and household cleaners, like shampoos and dish soaps. You can usually identify sulfates in an ingredients list by looking out for the most common types: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLC) and Sodium Laureth Sulfates (SLES). These chemicals, often derived from petroleum, are used to help form the “lather” we’re used to seeing in our beauty and cleaning products. When used in the shower or sink, these chemicals can flow through the pipes and into our waterways. Synthetic sulfates have been linked to allergic reactions, eye and skin irritation, and hair loss, and some studies suggest they contain carcinogenic ingredients.
