We're leaving more than footprints

New Zealand hotels, motels, B&Bs and accommodation providers use an estimated 76 million bottles of shampoo, conditioner and bath gel a year* – and although most of these will be packaged in recyclable bottles, the majority will go straight to landfill.

Some providers have championed the use of in-shower refillable dispensers but guests regard them as cheap, messy and unhygienic. Guests want their accommodation to be environmentally aware – but not at the expense of their toiletries.

Ecostick provides the perfect balance of luxurious packaging for premium-quality guest amenities and a truly environmental solution to the problem of single-use plastics.
