Why your old razor gets a free pass and what makes a good eco razor better
Not all razors are created equal and when it comes to sustainable shaving, eco razors face far more scrutiny than their plastic counterparts.
Consumers want proof: What’s it made from? How long will it last? Is it truly a reusable razor, or just another greenwashed gimmick?
We welcome those questions, and we’ve built Razeco to answer them.
If a product is labeled sustainable, it suddenly has to prove itself from every angle.
Why this material? How was it sourced? Where was it made? What happens at the end of its life?
We welcome those questions. At Razeco, we’re building eco razors that live up to them.
Our reusable razors are made from 99% bio-based materials, free from fossil plastics, and leave 99% less CO₂ behind when disposed of. This is sustainable shaving with nothing to hide.
But let’s talk about what’s not being questioned.
Nobody asks about the plastic razor that’s been sitting in their bathroom for years.
No one stops to think about the petroleum-based gel strips, the rubber grip, or the fact that it will take centuries to break down, if it ever does.
Here’s the truth:
The familiar gets a free pass. The new gets interrogated.
And yet, our eco razors are just as affordable, just as effective, and far more transparent than the old-school options. So why not hold all products to the same standard?
Change starts when we stop giving the past a free ride — and start demanding more from everything we put on our skin and into our planet.
