PACKAGING
Traditional toothpaste packaging has remained static in an era of innovation. Currently, there are already several recyclable alternatives to the plastic coated tubes that currently dominate the industry. Containers like milk cartons—typically composed of Tetra Pak®—are largely recyclable in addition to being food-grade material.
By using a design that allows the toothpaste tube to be its own container, this method additionally eliminates the excess waste created by toothpaste boxes.
