How Grove Reimagined Plastic Packaging
Cleaners, laundry detergent, and shampoo are effective because of what's in the bottle -- not the plastic bottle itself. So why not reimagine the packaging?
Like 5 Gyres, Grove Collaborative is working towards a plastic-free future. By reimagining everyday products and finding innovative ways to ditch plastic packaging, Grove has prevented 5 million pounds of plastic from being created in the last 5 years. That's how we go #BeyondPlastic!
