Wow, what a journey it has been! We at Gumpearl are incredibly proud to have become one of three finalists at the Recycling Gala in the category "Preventer of the Year" . Becoming one of the finalists is proof that we are on the right track - and it is thanks to you. Without your support and your belief in sustainable alternatives, this would not have been possible. Together, we have shown that small choices, like swapping plastic tubes for eco-friendly dental care solutions, can make a real difference.
An evening for sustainability and faith in the future.
The Recycling Gala is more than an awards ceremony, it is a tribute to everyone who works for a greener future. Here, an otherwise hard-working industry gets the attention it deserves. For us at Gumpearl, it was an honor to be part of this inspiring evening.
The gala, organized by Recycling together with Avfall Sverige and Återvinningsindustrierna , focuses on the industry and shows how important innovation is for a sustainable future .
What made Gumpearl a finalist?
Gumpearl was a finalist at the 2024 Recycling Awards thanks to our work to reduce plastic waste and create sustainable alternatives in oral care. Our toothpaste tablets are plastic-free, vegan and free of harmful chemicals. We use glass jars that can be reused and recycled and refill bags that are bio-based.
Our goal is clear: to reduce plastic waste and make sustainable choices easy. It is this focus that earned us recognition in the "Preventer of the Year" category.
"Every tablet is a step towards a greener future, and together with our customers we are making a real difference for the environment," says Sepide Hajitaheri, CEO and founder of Gumpearl.
What is behind our success?
Here are our key factors:
- Smart products: Toothpaste tablets that are easy to use and pre-dosed (2cm toothpaste).
- Sustainable packaging: Reusable and recyclable glass jars with refill bags to reduce plastic waste.
- Natural ingredients: Vegan, and free from unnecessary ingredients such as palm oil, titanium dioxide, parabens.
- Customer focus: Effective oral care that makes sustainable choices easy.
- Innovation: We think new and challenge the traditional.
This recognition inspires us to continue developing solutions where effective oral care and environmental awareness go hand in hand.
What happens now?
This is just the beginning. We are more motivated than ever to continue our journey. Going forward, we look forward to:
- Create even more sustainable solutions.
- Strengthen our collaborations within the industry.
- Inspire more people to see the value in recycling and reuse.
Thank you for your support!
We would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey. The final place at the Recycling Gala is a success we share with you. Every time you use a toothpaste tablet, reuse a can or choose us over traditional dental care, you are helping the environment. Together we make the world a little greener.💚
