Dove Pro Age Shampoo 400 ml

Compact by Design is an initiative we created to identify products that, while they may not always look very different, have a more efficient design. The removal of excess air and water from these products results in less packaging required and more efficient shipping. At scale, these small differences in product size and weight lead to significant carbon emission reductions.

One of the key focuses of Compact by Design is sustainability. Small changes in product size and weight can have a substantial impact on reducing carbon emissions. By optimizing the design of products, we can achieve these environmentally-friendly outcomes without drastically altering the appearance or functionality.

There are several ways in which products can qualify for the Compact by Design program. For example, the elimination of unnecessary packaging materials and the reduction of excess air or water content can contribute to a more compact and efficient final product. These design improvements may not always be visually apparent, but they can translate to meaningful decreases in the carbon footprint associated with manufacturing, transportation, and distribution.

The underlying principle behind Compact by Design is that minor adjustments to product characteristics can have a significant cumulative effect when applied at scale. By identifying and promoting these types of streamlined, resource-efficient designs, we aim to support and encourage sustainable practices within the consumer products industry. The ultimate goal is to drive incremental progress towards a more environmentally responsible future, one product at a time.

Through the Compact by Design initiative, we hope to inspire both manufacturers and consumers to consider the impact of product design on environmental sustainability. By focusing on small yet impactful changes, we can work towards reducing carbon emissions and promoting a more sustainable global economy. The collective effort of many individual product optimizations can lead to meaningful progress in the fight against climate change.
