The Restore Gel Refillable Toothpaste was introduced by SURI as a reusable toothpaste system designed to replace conventional single-use tubes. Developed over two years, the product pairs a reusable dispenser with replaceable refill bottles to reduce packaging waste. The dispenser uses a precision-dosed airless pump made from 50% recycled plastic, while the refill bottles were created with Shellworks using Vivomer, a plant-based home-compostable material. Users insert a refill into the dispenser, which delivers a measured amount of toothpaste with each pump for everyday use at home or while travelling.
The toothpaste formula contains nano-hydroxyapatite, a synthetic calcium phosphate compound used to help strengthen tooth enamel. The reusable dispenser is available in Sky, Meadow, and Stone finishes designed for countertop storage, and each refill can be replaced once empty without discarding the outer container.
