ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS FOR A BETTER FUTURE
“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.” - Robert Swan
Protecting our planet is at the heart of Eversio's core values. The unsustainable gap between the rate at which humans consume resources and pollute the planet with plastic waste continues to grow exponentially. Here at Eversio, we acknowledge that our products' production and distribution impact our planet. We are committed to actions that lessen this impact, starting with zero waste packaging.
We are committed to furthering the standard of sustainable packaging with collective measures that promote great choices for your health and Mother Earth.
SUSTAINABILITY
Plastic Free + Zero Waste Packaging Solutions
The Eversio Wellness functional mushroom extract supplements you know and love come in infinitely reusable glass jars. No plastic bottles, no single-use waste, just a package built to be used again and again. Keep reading to learn why glass is the foundation of everything we do at Eversio.
We Are a Planet Positive Company with Zero Waste Initiatives!
Simply put, we are part of an industry that needs improvement. Many supplements designed to keep us well are packaged in PLASTIC, which isn't beneficial for our planet. The global supplement industry creates 1.8 billion plastic bottles every year. It is predicted that more than 70% of these will end up in oceans or landfills due to inefficient waste and recycling systems. It MUST STOP. No more excuses. It's time for ALL companies, large and small, to find alternatives to plastic packaging.
Our sustainability goal is to inspire every other supplement brand to do their part to end plastic pollution in the supplement industry. Together, we can change the world. Can you imagine if every store in the health and wellness space had a plastic-free policy? Just picture those shelves with no plastic bottles. Now that would be HEALTH & WELLNESS for us and our planet. We want to push the boundaries of what’s possible with our zero waste initiatives.

What’s the Deal with Zero Waste Packaging?
Since the 1970’s, the petroleum industry has told us that our plastics would be recycled, and that recyclable packaging is the most sustainable option. The truth is most of our recycling does not actually get recycled.
Plastic Reality
National Geographic and the Canadian Government recently reported that 91% of plastic isn’t recycled but rather is going to landfills or being incinerated.
That means only 9% of plastic is actually being recycled, and annual global plastic production has increased nearly 200-fold since 1950 - up to 381 million tonnes in 2015.
It is clear that the only thing recyclable plastic packaging achieves is more plastic.
Recycling Myths
Rigid plastic packaging has created a global recycling crisis because of the reality that it is so often not delivered to its intended recycling facility. We think we are doing our part when we toss plastic into the recycle bin, but the reality of where that plastic actually ends up is another story. It’s upsetting to hear this, and we don’t want anyone to stop recycling, but as consumers we can do better by not buying things that create issues for our planet when we are finished with them.
Exposing Recycling MythsOUR INSPIRATION
Zero Waste Initiatives To Address The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
Our family-owned and operated business is committed to addressing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals wherever we can (we’d love to see big supplement companies do the same):
“The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.” - https://sdgs.un.org/goals
Here are two goals that Eversio is taking action to address:
Goal 13: Addressing Warning Signs Before It’s Too Late
“Goal 13 - Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.”
Goal 14: Sustainable Action Regarding Marine Conservation
“Goal 14 - Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, sea and marine resources for sustainable development.”
