Who Gives a Crap

This business launched in 2012 as the owners wanted to make a difference. Did you know that 2.4 billion people don’t have access to a toilet? That’s roughly 40% of the global population and means that around 289,000 children under give die every year from diarrhoeal diseases caused by poor water and sanitation. That’s almost 800 children, per day, or one child every two minutes. This company sells 100% recycled toilet paper and they donate 50% of profits to help build toilets because it’s their belief access to a safe, dignified loo is a basic human right and we love it. 

ZeroCo

This business delivers incredible personal care and home-cleaning products direct to your door, minus all the single use plastic. How it works?

Simply empty the contents of the refill pouches into the dispensers and wave bye-bye to single-use-plastic for the rest of your life. Pop the empty refill pouches into the reply-paid postage satchel and send it back to them (for free!) They clean it, refill, and reuse the pouch… putting an end to single use plastic for good.
