BodyArtPro and PunkMedicshave taken a proactive approach to deliver sustainable all natural skincare products to our customers. We are also committed to absolute environmental accountability, we have enthusiastically embraced what is known as the zero waste paradigm. This ideology strives to eliminate all waste by re-thinking and re-designing the current business model to create a more dynamic approach to resource recovery, product design, and recycling. From the start of the development and design process of each product sustainability and the products ecological footprint is considered.
Simply put our goal is to use eco-friendly packaging materials, use certified organic ingredients, utilize alternative energy sources, and minimize our ecological footprint.
FairTrade Ingredients
Where possible we source all our medicinal herbs from suppliers within North America and ensure they are Fair Trade Certified.
Labels
We use Digital Label Printing technology to cut back waste. Most film and label materials are made of petroleum and petro-chemicals, our eco-friendly labels are made of a corn-based alternative with Water-based adhesives making them easier to remove for package recycling. We also use a water-based, solvent free ink in our label designs.
Aluminum Bottles
The EPA estimates that containers and packaging account for 32% of municipal solid waste. Over the last 2 years we've made a transition to using aluminum bottles in 75% of our products. Aluminum is permanently reusable. The ability to infinitely recycle aluminum with no loss in quality is the highlight of the sustainability of metal packaging. Provides significant energy savings in production, Aluminum recycling saves 95% of the energy needed for primary production.
Plastic Bottles
During our transitional period of using 100% aluminum packaging our plastic bottles still maintain a high level of recycled plastics. We use High-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles with a high percentage of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content and have increased our percentage of PCR by 50% over the last 3 years.
Print Based Advertising We restrict our print based promotions to a once annual paper based mailing. We do not offer print based catalogs and instead provide a very comprehensive ecommerce based website with detailed information of all our products. Our paper based promotions are printed on non-glossy 100% post-consumer content. The printing is done with soybean-based inks, and absolutely no petroleum or solvent-based solutions were used in the production. It's so clean it can even be composted!
Zero Waste Company
BodyArtPro is a successful “Zero Waste” company where any perceived materials which might be regarded as waste are either recycled, re-used, composted, reclaimed, or brought back into the production cycle. Our non recyclable waste amounts to one garbage bag a month.
Recycled Materials
All invoices and other paper materials printed in our office is on 100% post consumer waste material. We will never utilize nor purport the use of virgin paper materials. We even use recycled office supplies manufactured with post consumer recycled materials.
Shipping Materials
We use recycled post-consumer newsprint to cushion your order, our boxes used for shipment are made from post-consumer corrugation material with a minimum of 25% post-consumer recycled material, and the peanuts which are occasionally used in our parcels are salvaged from other companies that ship to us.
Chemical Free Facility
BodyArtPro does not use, nor condone the use of chemical cleaning agents, or other synthetic agents which are harmful to ourselves and the environment. All cleaning products used within our facilities are 100% natural, bio-degradable and are approved for use within certified organic facilities.
Company Vehicles
We switched our cargo and delivery vehicle to run on hybrid technology and we employ shipping companies and couriers when needed that employ green vehicles.
Carbon Neutrality
