TRENTON, N.J., Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Bliss, a clean, cruelty-free, spa-powered skincare brand has partnered with international recycling leader, TerraCycle, to make the packaging for its line of personal care products nationally recyclable in the United States. As an added incentive, for every shipment of Bliss waste sent to TerraCycle, collectors earn points that can be donated to a non-profit, school or charitable organization of their choice.
“We know that our shoppers care not only about what they’re putting on their bodies, but also the implications their choices have on the environment and world around them,” says Meri Baregamian, CEO of Bliss. “We are thrilled to be entering this partnership with TerraCycle to ensure that our products are not only efficacious, but environmentally friendly. This marks one of Bliss’ key sustainability initiatives and we are excited to continue evolving our products to be cleaner and more sustainable.”
Through the Bliss Recycling Program, consumers can now send in all Bliss personal care products and packaging including flexible and rigid plastic, pumps, sprays, packets, pouches, tubes, jars, and complex closures to be recycled for free. Participation is easy: simply sign up on the TerraCycle program page https://www.terracycle.com/en-US/brigades/bliss and mail in the packaging waste using a prepaid shipping label. Once collected, the packaging is cleaned and melted into hard plastic that can be remolded to make new recycled products.
All Bliss products are 100% cruelty-free and free from more than 1,300 harmful ingredients that consumers do not want on their skin or body. Bliss believes that taking care of each other and the environment are fundamental to achieving a higher state of happy.
“Through the launch of this recycling program, Bliss is achieving their goal of helping everyone experience unapologetic happiness by guiding consumers to focus not only on the wellness of the skin, but on the wellness of the planet,” said TerraCycle CEO and Founder, Tom Szaky.
Beginning on November 15th for National Recycling Day, the Bliss Recycling Program will be open to any interested individual, school, office, or community organization. For more information on TerraCycle’s recycling programs, visit www.terracycle.com.
