Sustainability

REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE

While our mission is to provide the highest quality sun protection products available, we also try to think about the environmental effects of our business. Some of these simple changes and suggestions can make a big impact on our environment:

REDUCE
Rocky Mountain Sunscreen's stability testing gives all of our products a three year shelf life, thereby reducing the amount of wasted sunscreen and the number of bottles needed and used. RMS is also committed to reducing our carbon emissions by supporting employee telecommuting.

REUSE
Reuse refillable sunscreen bottles! We began our commitment to sustainability back in 1993 with the introduction of our Refillable Sunscreen System. Our convenient pocket size 2oz bottle and family size 6oz bottle are easily refilled from either our quart or gallon pump dispensers.

RECYCLE
We strongly encourage recycling! Most of our bottles and tubes are made from 100% recyclable plastic, please clean and recycle your empty sunscreen bottles. RMS is taking steps to recycle 80% of our recyclable waste to reduce our environmental impact. All of our shipping material is 100% recyclable (the average corrugated box consists of 43% recycled fibers).

THE FUTURE
We are committed to continuous innovation and creativity in product formulation and packaging. We have only just begun working towards environmental consciousness and are excited about the direction we are headed.
