Colgate Smile for Good changes this by using high-density polyethylene (HDPE), the same plastic used to make 2L milk bottles and other plastic containers that are already widely recycled.
Having previously thought HDPE was too rigid to create a squeezable toothpaste tube, Colgate engineers developed an innovative solution to combine different grades and thicknesses of HDPE laminate into a tube that meets recycling standards, while still protecting the product and holding up to the demands of high-speed production.
