As Net Zero week focuses attention on carbon reduction across sectors, there’s a more complex question on our minds: how do we cut emissions and deliver wider social impact at the same time?
The re:mind range was designed with this challenge foremost. Produced by Amplify Goods exclusively for Bunzl UK & Ireland, re:mind offers a refill-first, circular-enabled approach that help organisations reduce emissions associated with packaging, transport and waste when compared with equivalent single-use formats – while embedding social value into everyday operations.
Where suitable alternatives are available, re:mind prioritises materials with lower packaging weight, recycled content or reuse potential, supporting organisations’ carbon reduction and Net Zero ambitions without disrupting washroom performance or asthetics.
But Net Zero strategies don’t exist in isolation. Increasingly, organisations need to demonstrate how their environmental progress also supports people and communities. This is where re:mind stands apart.
Every re:mind product is packed through a paid work experience programme supporting people facing barriers to employment, including homelessness and disability. Each refill helps create living-wage opportunities, building skills and confidence while contributing directly to local social value – particularly meaningful as organisations look to strengthen ESG reporting and procurement frameworks. A single refill-first re:mind glass bottle for example, creates 10 minutes of work, uses 65g of repurposed cardboard, and generates around £30 of social value (SROI).
During Net Zero Week, re:mind shows what future-ready sustainability can look like: solutions that reduce carbon, simplify operations and create opportunity – all through a single, well-considered product choice. Because the path to Net Zero should leave no one behind. This is luxury with purpose.
