Dr. Bronner’s has been around for many years and has created a line of products that people feel good about using. Being the top selling natural soap maker in North American and a major brand worldwide shows that it is much more than just having the best product. Besides the amazing quality of the products, it is the philosophy and what the company stands for that has created it’s great name in the Beauty industry. The company continues to gain customers by showing them that they uphold their philosophy and are willing to be the one of the first to move towards global environmental sustainability.
In honoring founder Emanuel Bronner’s views and ideology, the company wanted to put their mission into practice. Since 2013 the company had been researching ways to construct an on site solar generated electricity system, but soon realized that the building of the factory could not hold solar panels on its roof. However, this did not stop them from achieving their goals in which they pursued a solar design project that would utilize all buildable areas surrounding the building.
Four years later on Friday, September 29th, Dr. Bronner’s took the step forward in becoming a leader in sustainable business and giving back to the world. The company hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the company’s new solar power project. This solar power project creates a huge improvement in their sustainability efforts as the system accommodates 50% of their factory’s annual power use. This goes along with their new drought tolerant landscaping using regenerative organic practices which will save the company over 600,000 gallons of water each year. These improvements in their company reassure consumers that the product that they are purchasing is not only great soap, but an investment in a company that supports a better lifestyle.
