Todayās technology allows people to buy globally instead of just whatās available in their backyards, it also allows providers to source out to manufacturers, labs, and producers overseas to get higher amounts of inventory for cheaper. But it comes at a cost.Ā
Overseas manufacturers donāt always possess as high of standards in terms of working conditions and workers rights, or putting in environmental protections.Ā
We decided, as should others, that this cost was not worth a cheaper price tag.
So our bars are made in America. With the reduction in transportation and addition of EPA regulations on companies in the States, producing them here caused a major reduction in our carbon footprint. We apply the same thinking to all our productsāwhether it's our bars or accessories like the best brush for fine hair, we prioritize quality manufacturing that reduces environmental impact. Now we're not going to claim to be perfect.
Now weāre not going to claim to be perfect. That saying, āitās better to have 100 imperfect environmentalist than 1 perfect environmentalistā we believe in that heavily.
So we do have a disclaimer to make, our travel tins & accessories have traveled overseas.
We are a small business and the ability to get tins made in America just wasnāt possible. Even when we found American vendors they still sourced out to overseas manufacturers. Weāre not perfect, but weāre bettering ourselves, our business, and with it our Earth.Ā
We invite you to be an imperfect environmentalist with us and look for majority of your products stamped āUSA Madeā but donāt worry, we wonāt cancel you from the movement if you canāt :)
