Manufacturers and retailers become Good Buddies
During the project we gave companies the oppportunity to become a 'Good Buddy', allowing them to publicly show their committment on switching from plastic to paper. We encouraged those already producing or selling cotton bud sticks with biodegradable stems to sign up too. Once a company had committed to make the switch they were added to our 'Buddy' list - once the switch had been made and paper cotton buds were in store, they were moved to our Good Buddy list.
The first on our list were cotton bud brand leader Johnson & Johnson and UK retailer Waitrose.
