Amplify Your Business Change Toothpaste

For Episode 161 of Amplify Your Business, we’re joined by Damien Vince, co-founder of Change Toothpaste, who makes sustainable toothpaste. Change Toothpaste is a toothpaste tablet that doesn’t change how you brush your teeth, but instead, what you use to brush them. Traditional toothpaste tubes are made up of 11 polymers, plastics, and resins that are neither recyclable nor compostable. Every tube ever made still sits in a landfill somewhere. Change Toothpaste wanted to, well, change that. 

 

Their all-natural toothpaste tablets are sold in compostable pouches, and since it’s a dry tablet - meaning they’re not shipping “water” like traditional toothpaste tubes - shipping is lower, which keeps the cost of the tablets down.
