Colgate-Palmolive’s Palmolive dish soap brand is partnering with TerraCycle for its Palmolive Refill Free Recycling Programme, enabling individuals, schools, offices, and community organisations in the US to recycle dish soap refill flexible packaging and caps. The initiative expands sustainable practices, allowing consumers to recycle refill packaging after use. Participants can sign up online, sending any brand of flexible dish soap refill packaging and caps via a prepaid shipping label. Collected materials are cleaned, separated, and recycled into raw formats for new product manufacturing. Colgate-Palmolive’s collaboration with TerraCycle aligns with its broader sustainability goals, aiming to eliminate one-third of new plastics, achieve 100% renewable electricity, and attain net zero carbon emissions across operations and the supply chain by 2040.
