DM dispenses with microplastics in Balea products

Drugstore group "dm" throws out microplastics

Karlsruhe. Der größte Drogerie-Konzern Europas, verzichtet zukünftig auf Mikroplastik-Bestandteile bei den Produkten der Eigenmarke Balea.

Microplastics in cosmetics ist für den Kunden sowohl auf der Verpackung als auch in Duschgels, Peeling oder Zahnpasta nur sehr schwer zu erkennen. Durch this petition on Campact hat der Konzern nun reagiert und angekündigt, die Kunststoff-Bestandteile aus den Produkten zu entfernen. Fast 200.000 Menschen hatten unterzeichnet und dm dazu aufgefordert, die Produkte umweltfreundlicher und gesünder zu machen.

Microplastics is a massive problem that affects everyone. Detecting it in products is difficult. That's why we recommend the CodeCheck app, which allows you to scan a product's barcode and immediately see if it contains microplastics or other harmful substances.

Because each of these products that we use in the household, ultimately brings further Microplastics into the sea.
