Tom’s of Maine is one of my favorite brands when it comes to personal care products for my family. Sustainability is a priority in their transparent business practices as they take several environmentally friendly production measures. All of their toothpaste cartons are made of post-consumer recycled paperboard, waste ink is utilized to print corrugated cases, vegetable based inks are used on professionally printed materials and packaging, and they are powered through 100% renewable wind energy. Additionally, their products are recyclable through the TerraCycle program.
