Touchstone Essentials, a detox and organic supplement direct sales company, launched new sustainable packaging, reducing its plastic footprint for a better world.
Global detox and nutritional supplement brand, Touchstone Essentials, a plastic neutral certified organization, takes sustainability seriously. The brand's resolute commitment to positive change means giving back and protecting the planet, which is reflected in its long-standing use of glass bottles for its detox supplements, compostable packaging materials, and switch from plastic to paper-based packing tape.
The company announced the completion of another sustainability milestone: the switch from plastic canisters to bio-PPE pouches for its organic superfood powder supplement line. The introduction of lightweight pouches lessens Touchstone Essentials' carbon footprint, and reduces the amount of plastic in the environment.
Going plastic neutral is a process that takes dedication and a true vision for a more sustainable future, by committing to fund the removal of as much nature-bound plastic as is used within the company's entire product line. Touchstone Essentials achieved this significant certification through a collaboration with rePurpose Global, an organization that helps put plastic waste management systems in place in areas that do not have the infrastructure.
Switching from plastic canisters was achieved by partnering with Grounded, a packaging producer that manufactures low carbon pouches with their patented SugarFlex™ bio-based non-GMO technology. Bio-PPE pouches are now in use for the organic greens powder, Super Green Juice; the plant-based protein mix, Organic Super Protein; and the superfood-based fiber blend, Organic Super Fiber.
Both Touchstone Essentials and Grounded are committed to a more sustainable future. Grounded products and materials are specifically designed with environmental impact in mind. The manufacturer's transparency includes total visibility into their production, supply chain, and life cycle impact for each of their products. This includes fossil fuel reduction, sole use of renewable materials, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and recyclable plastics.
