Home / Sustainable packaging info – biodegradable refill pouches

Please note, the conditioner refill pouches are biodegradable but are not recyclable at all. Please dispose of them in your regular or compost bin.

Exposure to sunlight or heat triggers a two-step degradation process, in which the plastic breaks down through oxidation into small fragments, which then biodegrade into the natural elements of carbon dioxide, water, biomass and minerals. The bags degrade and physically disintegrate in anything from a few weeks to 24 months depending on the physical conditions - oxygen, moisture, heat, mechanical stress and microbes - in the disposal environment. In a landfill site, the packaging will degrade in around 12 to 24 months.
