OUR MISSION
ECOKAPS is a company driven to make the world a better place.
Deeply entrenched in our philosophy is a belief that businesses must take ownership and responsibility for the care of the environment. As parents and grandparents ourselves, we want to leave a better world for our children.
WHO ARE WE?
At our heart, we are an organisation that supplies ‘eco-positive’ products to global markets in the most affordable and socially responsible way possible.
We have a forward thinking, socially conscious and ‘common sense for the common good’ business model that beautifully balances the wellbeing and success of our customers, staff, distributors and the health of our planet.
We have spent significant time and resource developing product formulas that now deliver what we genuinely believe to be the best product on the market.
Our 'recipes' have been thoroughly tested to ensure excellent quality and minimal environmental impact.
WHY DISSOLVABLE PRODUCTS
James, Gena and Syd realised that as a group they were driven to build a business that made a positive impact on the world. Having all been in business for many years, they wanted to start something that would be a genuine passion project. They thought hard about how they could contribute to better commercial responsibility, and felt that helping to reduce the amount of single use plastics clogging our landfills, waterways and oceans was a superb place to start.
As they worked through how to contribute to plastic reduction, they thought about their own homes and where they could reduce single-use plastic wastage.
They realised that:
- So many of us are still using single-use plastic (sometimes non recyclable) bottles. Even if they are recyclable, the environmental impact of constantly recycling single-use bottles is not great. In fact, plastic can only be recycled a handful of times before it requires more plastic to be added.
- Some products are marketed as recyclable, but not every country or region actually has the infrastructure/capability to effectively recycle these materials. Which effectively turns a lot of recyclable product back into single use material....and landfill.
- Not only are we throwing away crazy amounts of plastic (that does not biodegrade forever and a day!), we are also transporting plastic all over the world in huge volumes. The resulting emissions are significant.
As they researched solutions to these issues, the following really struck a chord with them all:
- Reusable bottles made with aluminium and glass (infinitely recyclable materials) are the best and most affordable options currently available as single-use plastic substitutes
- A lot of products are predominantly water, which is bulky and heavy to transport; not to mention easily sourced in most destination countries.
- Soluble products completely eliminate the need to transport water across oceans and countries.
When they realised they could transport the equivalent of thirty-seven containers of everyday cleaning liquid in just one container using dissolvable products, they thought, whoah, awesome!
THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
At ECOKAPS, we understand that there aren't really any 'silver bullet' type overnight fixes when it comes to changing local and global habits in general product use, production and transport. Yes, we know that we are still creating bottles and transporting product around the world, but we are working hard to dramatically stem the tide of single-use plastics and emissions. We're also working hard at becoming carbon-neutral, which is a hugely significant goal for the company. Our desire to move in this direction is embedded in our DNA, and our progress is our evolution; but at least in the meantime we know we are empowering everyday people from around the world to hugely reduce their daily, monthly and annual impact. We believe it's a 'giant leap' in the right direction.
