Our Color Remover powder is packaged in a multi-layer foil and laminated sachet (C/LDPE 90) which maintains the integrity and safety of the product. These layers are excellent at keeping out moisture, oxygen and light which would otherwise compromise the powder.
Currently, these layers cannot be made from recycled materials nor can they be recycled after use. Although nothing exists on the market yet that has the perfect balance of sustainability and protection, we're continuing to look into this behind the scenes and hope to have additional options in the future.

The lid (#2 HDPE) and scoop (#5 PP) can be recycled using most curbside recycling bins. Our Lightener canister is made from a total of 47% recycled content (aluminum, cardboard, and lining; C/PAP 82). Currently, due to the chemical contact and protection of these layers, our canisters can’t be recycled after use. We’re continuing to work behind the scenes at finding additional options for a more recyclable material after use that doesn’t compromise the integrity and safety of the product. While we work behind the scenes, we encourage artists to find creative ways of repurposing our canisters. Some clever ideas we’ve seen are using them for storing hair clips, and tint brushes.
