How much toothpaste and how many toothpaste tubes do you throw away per year?

How much toothpaste and how many toothpaste tubes do you throw away each year?

Have you ever considered how much toothpaste and how many toothpaste tubes you use per year? Most people use about 12 tubes of toothpaste per person per year. That's a lot of plastic that ends up in landfills annually. But did you know that with every toothpaste tube you throw away, you are also unknowingly wasting a lot of toothpaste? On average, 12 brushings worth of toothpaste remain in a tube when you throw it away. That amounts to approximately two full tubes of toothpaste that you discard without using. Isn't that a shame?

Waste of toothpaste and difficult-to-recycle packaging

Two full tubes of toothpaste that we throw away per person annually. Besides the waste of toothpaste, toothpaste tubes are also bad for the environment. Most tubes are made from a combination of plastic and aluminum, which makes them difficult to recycle. As a result, they often end up in general waste and contribute to the growing waste mountain.

Time for change

At ReBloom Care, we believe that things can and must be done differently. That's why we have developed a sustainable and user-friendly alternative. Our toothpaste comes in a convenient glass bottle with a pump, so you never have to squeeze (or cut open packaging) to get the last bits of toothpaste out. And when the bottle is empty, you can refill it from the toothpaste refill pack.

With our large refill pack, you can refill the bottle twice. That's equivalent to four months of brushing — or four fewer tubes of toothpaste waste. This way, you not only save product, but also unnecessary packaging material. Good for you and for the planet.

Brush smart, save more
