Reuse. Reduce. Recycle. Introducing Origins recycling programme
  • Everyday consumer product packaging accounts for approximately 1/3 of all landfill waste.
  • Most community recyclers only take items made from materials that are easily recognised - such as soft drink and water bottles.
  • Cosmetic and toiletry bottles, tubes, caps and jars are among those items not easily recognised and therefore not often recycled.
  • Join the return to Origins Recycling Programme
    Now you can bring your empty cosmetic tubes, bottles and jars, etc. - regardless of brand - to your nearest Origins counter nationwide. All returned packaging will be sent back to WasteCare, our recycling partner, where products will be recycled or used for energy recovery.

    In an industry first, Origins will accept packaging from any cosmetic company regardless of the manufacturer. We believe that the more we collect from consumers, the more we can keep cosmetic packaging out of landfill. And we hope this programme will encourage other companies into following our example.

    To thank you for joining us in our commitment to the environment, we'll treat you to a FREE sample of an Origins high-performance skincare product.
