O'Right - natural shampoo, scalp & body care
I had come to hear about O'Right when I was doing research on sustainable personal care products. I remember I had been extremely impressed by this innovative brand from Taiwan that not only was using all natural ingredients, but it offered also a very special shampoo bottle made of coffee grounds that was 100% compostable and could be thrown in the organic waste bin once finished. But the coolest part was yet to come! Steven Ko - CEO and Founder of O'Right - had the creative idea to place a seed in the bottom of the bottle so that once in contact with soil it could sprout in a plant...how amazing to know that your shampoo bottle will become a beautiful tree! This is also one of the reasons that O'Right shampoo bottles can reduce carbon footprint by 80% when compared to standard plastic bottles, an achievement that contributed to the accreditation of PAS 2060 certification to the company for reaching carbon neutrality.
Steven gave a very inspiring speech in occasion of the HK Social Enterprise Summit 2018 and he demonstrated honest commitment giving examples of choices he'd been making since day one to stand up for his values, such as providing his employees with a meat-free canteen, by opting for pedal activated sinks instead of electricity consuming sensors and by manufacturing pallets for loading packages by recycling the lids of their shampoo bottles. When I asked him how he could manage the re-collection of the lids he said that his company puts all efforts in creating connections and partnerships with all the stakeholders that are involved in the cycle (in this case the recycling companies) so to promote a true circular economy. I wish more companies had a vision such as O'Right.
