AKAR is proud to be part of Pact Collective, a nonprofit uniting the beauty industry to tackle the challenge of packaging waste. Most beauty packaging—like pumps, droppers, and tubes—is too small or complex to be recycled curbside. Pact steps in to properly recycle and process these materials through more sustainable solutions, including waste-to-energy and waste-to-concrete when needed.
Save 5–10 empty AKAR (or other beauty) containers that can’t be recycled at home.
Rinse out all leftover product. Packaging must be clean and empty to be accepted.
Not everything belongs in the Pact bin. Review the guidelines before mailing.
✧ Near a Pact bin? Drop your empties off in-store (the most sustainable option!)
✧ No bin nearby? Send them to Pact using a small box (max 6"x6"x3") or envelope (8"x12").
