Shampoo Bars
“We use approximately 165 kilos of plastic packaging per person per year. And we only use half of that plastic once before it ends up in the trash. And while we all know that plastic is not good for the environment.” At Shampoo Bars they thought this had to be done differently and they launched the Shampoo Bar: a plastic-free shampoo in the form of a soap bar. This local and sustainably produced shampoo lasts 80 washes and replaces three bottles of shampoo per bar. Count your (plastic) profit. The shampoo bar is available in all kinds of scents and flavors: from classic lavender to tropical mango/coconut.

The challenge
Shampoo Bars quickly became a very popular product after their launch. There are currently more than 100 external points of sale that offer the product and online sales also continue to grow. This is of course nice to see, especially because the product can make such a major contribution to a more sustainable world. But the rapid growth also brought challenges. On the one hand in the field of production and logistics, but the pressure on customer service also continued to increase. Soon after its founding, it was no longer an option to work 'separately' from different communication channels.
