Although there are some bulk stores that offer a variety of home goods and personal care products to be purchased in a zero-waste way, Zero Co sees a better way to reach consumers by delivering products directly to their homes. Zero Co is on a mission to reduce single-use plastics from kitchens, laundry rooms and bathrooms with its Starter Box and Starter Box Lite. After purchasing these packs of six or 10 home and personal care products, consumers are able to regularly replenish their supply with refills.
Zero Co offers everything from laundry liquid and dishwasher tablets to body wash, multi-purpose cleaners and air fresheners for a fraction of the cost of supermarket prices. Additionally, the product packaging is made with plastic that's been recovered from the ocean or diverted from the landfill.
