By switching to plant-based compostable bags and refillable, rechargeable smart bottles, Desert Harvest is setting itself apart as the first company in the United States to eliminate single-use pill bottles. The manufacturer of nutritional supplements is committing to phasing out all single-use plastic bottles for its products by the end of 2022.
The company's nutritional supplements are formulated with a proprietary super-concentrated aloe vera extract and soon, the flagship Super-Strength Aloe Vera Capsules can be found in plant-based compostable bags. To reduce waste and help customers when it comes to taking their supplements, Desert Harvest is giving customers the option to purchase smart bottles that pair with an app for the purposes of tracking pill usage, offering refill reminders and much more.
Sustainable packaging is just one way that Desert Harvest is reducing its carbon footprint.
