SUSTAINABILITY MATTERS

We are a female-founded personal & home care business with a clear mission: to remove single-use plastic from daily rituals by replacing disposable packaging with more beautiful, refillable and long-lasting solutions.

Closed loop recycling

Every pouch you return is part of a closed-loop system. 

We’ve partnered with a specialist recycling facility, who break our pouches down using innovative pyrolysis technology. This process separates the layers of plastic and aluminium, returning them back into virgin-grade materials that can be used again – rather than ending up in landfill or waterways.

Your part is simple: pop your empty pouch back in the post using the pre-paid returns label already printed on the packaging. We’ll take care of the rest.

We have over 80% returns rate from our customers - something we’re incredibly proud of.

LOWERING EMISSIONS, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY

From how our products are made, to how they arrive at your door, we aim to tread lightly. We only work with UK or EU-based suppliers to keep our supply chain short and our transport emissions lower. 

ALIGNED WITH GLOBAL GOALS

Our work supports five key UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These guide our decisions, championing gender equality, responsible consumption, climate action, and ocean health.

SDG 5: Gender Equality

As a female-led business, we advance women’s full and effective participation in leadership and decision-making and are proud that over half of our suppliers are similarly founded by women.

SDG 12: Responsible Consumption & Production

Reducing single-use plastics is at the absolute heart of REIA; all our products are designed to be refillable and reusable. We strive to use and promote sustainable production processes, whilst refillable systems encourage circular economy practices.

SDG 14: Life Below Water

Conventional recycling of single-use plastics has failed to prevent continued damage to Marine ecosystems, which are heavily impacted by plastic waste. Our mission of preventing plastic pollution helps reduce harm to aquatic biodiversity.

SDG 13: Climate Action

Reducing plastic production lowers carbon emissions. Aluminium and glass, though energy-intensive initially, have significantly lower lifecycle emissions when reused over time.

SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals

We will continue to work with like-minded partners, who share and can demonstrate common values, whilst we seek verification of our own approach through recognised bodies.
