Eco Solution To Problems With Glass/Plastic Supplement Jars And Vitamin Packaging
Glass and plastic vitamin and supplement packaging (bottles, containers, pouches) have serious marketing and health issues. Glass is heavy to ship, usually uses a plastic lid and the jar almost always breaks when dropped onto a hard floor. A hidden danger with glass vitamin bottles is that sometimes when setting down a glass vitamin bottle onto a hard counter, the shock can cause fragments of glass to break loose inside of the jar, leaving the exterior intact and creating a bad surprise when pouring out the last capsules. Awareness of the inherent toxicity of plastic is growing despite massive marketing campaigns promoting recycling and lightweighting of plastic packages.
Only a small amount of plastic and glass packaging is recycled, and plastic has countless environmental issues. In response, some supplement companies are switching to so-called ‘compostable’ plastic pouches, but they lack shelf presence and ‘compostable’ plastic is equally as toxic as conventional plastic is . Read article here.
Others are switching to competing paper-based supplement canisters, but those currently available in the marketplace do not have the oxygen resistance of the IMPACT Canister, so have a far shorter shelf life than the patented IMPACT Canister's 3+ year shelf life for supplements.
