There is a global call from environment advocates to urge multinational companies and leading brands of consumer goods to lessen use of plastics in their product packaging by refilling. It is yet to happen.<\/span><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
However, a local brand called SABON EXPRESS, has joined the global reuse and refill revolution to spur a transition to a plastic-free future. Its founder and Chairman, Mellany Zambrano, believes it is time to shift consumer behavior and habits when it comes to buying household products.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
SABON EXPRESS, an innovative consumer goods brand and franchisable store chain, is paving the way for locally manufactured liquid soaps and detergents to have strong foothold in the market with its first-of-its-kind mechanized and automated \u2018sabon\u2019 refilling stations that allow consumers to have a refill of highly essential and consumable household products like dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, fabric conditioner, liquid hand soap, car shampoo, reusing their own bottles and containers \u2013 in a hygienic way.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
SABON EXPRESS dubbed as The Refill Authority, is trailblazing a more appropriate way of sabon refilling \u2013 one that does not require the \u2018tindera\u201d to use \u201ctabo\u201d or dipper to fetch products from the drum to manually refill bottles, which is a current practice of most local sabon refilling stores in the country. Said manual process potentially contaminates products and makes refilling messy and unhygienic. Sabon Express recently launched its liquid soap dispensing unit at the ZeroWaste Bazaar in Uptown Mall BGC Taguig last July 18-21 \u2013 as the first and only automated and hygienic sabon refilling station in the country.<\/span><\/div>\n
The Zero Waste Bazaar is in celebration of Plastic-Free July, a collaborative event of Ecowaste Coalition of the Philippines, Greenpeace Philippines, Mother Earth Foundation, Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives, Health Care Without Harm together with Break Free from Plastic, Oceana Philippines International, and Megaworld Lifestyle Malls. It showcased a photo exhibit and bazaar featuring art and eco-friendly stores to make plastic-free Pilipinas a reality.<\/span><\/div>\n
SABON EXPRESS strongly advocates for \u201ca world with less plastic\u201d by promoting the reuse of plastic containers for household products via its conceptual and innovative hygienic \u2018sabon\u2019 refill dispensing unit in all its stores which comes in both manual and automated machines \u2013 a game changer in the local \u2018sabon\u2019 refilling industry.<\/span><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
With a vision to serve the country\u2019s increasingly demanding market at scale, Sabon Express is committed to continuous research and development and is being assisted by the Department of Science and Technology\u2019s Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI) for further product development, technical advancement and good manufacturing technology and processes.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cAt Sabon Express, we are always looking for ways to innovate in order to serve our consumers better and to help save the environment in our own little way because our business is advocacy-driven\u201d, says Mellany Zambrano.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
