What Makes Georganics Truly Sustainable?

A closer look at Georganics ingredients and packaging

In the UK we throw away around 300 million toothpaste tubes every year. Made from plastic packaging that is unrecyclable, and full of preservatives, artificial flavours and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). These ingredients can be absorbed by the body and affect hormonal and nervous systems, and they shouldn’t end up in our environment.

But conventional, unsustainable toothpaste isn’t the only option. When it comes to sustainable dental care, Georganics is a brand that stands out for all the right reasons. Their range is fully natural, and they have environmentally responsible practices, so it’s no wonder that they’re the UK’s leading sustainable dental brand. 

But what makes them so sustainable? Read on to find out why Georganics is a household name for sustainable dental care.

Ethical Ingredients not Preservatives

Unlike many high-street name brands, Georganics' approach to natural dental care starts with ethically sourced, non-toxic ingredients. While high-street brands' ingredients list often contain dyes, preservations, SLS and artificial flavouring, you won’t find any of that with Georganics.

They follow the philosophy that each ingredient that they use should be traceable. In practical terms, that means that every ingredient is sourced with care so that they can fully trace it back to its origins. They do this by partnering with UK-based suppliers known for sustainability. 

So, what’s inside their products? They’re packed full of effective natural ingredients like calcium carbonate for gentle polishing, coconut oil for its antibacterial properties, kaolin clay for cleansing, and activated charcoal for whitening. Everything in Georganics’ products is free from harmful chemicals and synthetics, making them not only safe for your teeth but also kind to the planet.

Transparency when it comes to Ingredient Sourcing

Do you ever wonder where the ingredients in the products you buy actually come from? As an eco-conscious person, you’ve probably thought about sourcing your products from sustainable brands, hoping that the ingredients come from ethical sources, with good labour practices, and not travelling really far distances. It’s usually almost impossible to find that information and be able to make an informed decision.

Georganics on the other hand has an easy-to-access guide on their website, listing each ingredient and its origin. This transparency is a huge plus for anyone wanting to make informed dental care decisions. 

By prioritising efficacy, sustainability, and traceability, Georganics maintains its quality while aligning with eco-friendly practices so that you can make informed decisions. 

Eco-Conscious Packaging

It’s true that most of the dental care products you see at the supermarket come in plastic. Toothpaste tubes are incredibly difficult to recycle as they’re made up of lots of different materials, plus they’re very difficult to clean, usually still containing a little product. That combined, makes them almost impossible to recycle at most recycling centres. 

Georganics have considered this. Each of their items are packaged to be entirely plastic-free and recyclable, with the use of glass jars with aluminium lids, compostable boxes, and cartons made from 100% crafted paper that’s fully biodegradable. Even the inks used on packaging are vegetable-based to ensure no harmful chemicals enter the waste system. 

By using glass jars, they can easily be refilled or repurposed, encouraging us to think about waste in a new way, and not just ending up in landfill or the incinerator.

One of the most impressive elements of Georganics’ packaging is its commitment to zero waste. Rather than bubble wrap or polystyrene, Georganics chooses eco-friendly alternatives, and they even offer a zero-to-landfill scheme, helping customers recycle materials that local facilities can’t process. 

Why Eco-Friendly Dental Care Matters

Georganics’ sustainable approach isn’t just about saving the planet—it’s also about providing products that are safer for our health. With conventional dental products often containing synthetic chemicals and artificial flavours that aren’t good for us, the natural ingredients from Georganics offer peace of mind, knowing that what you’re putting in your mouth is safe.

Georganics is setting a new standard for what natural, eco-friendly dental care should look like.
