Proposing refill stations for cleaning products for reducing waste.

Zero Waste aim : in order to save plastic and rely on the reuse of materials, in two Migros branches, customers can fill their laundry, dishware and cleaning products themselves and thus use the packaging several times. If you refill a bottle at least three times, the reusable bottle is already more environmentally friendly than the refill packaging. Migros hope to extend this service to other products and store. https://www.migros.ch/fr/durabilite/plastique-emballages/nos-avancees/zero-waste-produits-nettoyage.html

Migros takes great pride in her investment in sustainability. The refill stations are just one example of many how we aim to reduce packaging and waste. At the moment, we are considering expanding the refill stations for cleaning products to more supermarkets throughout Switzerland. The first two refill stations were a huge success. Our clients appreciate this service very much. The numbers are a proof of this: our sales goals for six months were already reached after 2,5 weeks. Apart from the refill stations for cleaning products we are also offering refill stations for long lasting bioproducts such as rice, nuts or pasta. At the moment we are in the process of expanding these refill stations in Migros supermarkets across the country. Furthermore, in order to reduce packaging and waste we engange in several different project such as offering a reusable bag for fruits and vegetables, called «veggie bag». We offer reusable trays for restaurant and take away food. The mineral water of our own label « Aproz » comes in 100% recycled PET-bottles and in central Switzerland we have started a plastic waste collection system with our own plastic collection bag : You can buy such a bag in our supermarkets, collect your plastic at home and bring your plastic waste to a Migros supermarket near you. We transport the plastic to a recycling factory and with the produced regranulate, we aim to produce recycled packaging for our own label products.

Sorry, it’s only in German, French and Italian.

        Great idea, really convenient for household chemicals and seemingly a way to save money. But need to think about the contents of the containers also, how safe it is for nature...

              Amazing to see zero waste options more and more available in "normal" supermarkets and not only in specialized zero waste shops

                That’s really a good idea which I haven’t seen elsewhere except for milk.

                  Some health food stores in the US offer earth friendly cleaning supplies (laundry, dish, and general cleaning soaps) in bulk like this.
