In order to save plastic packaging and thus valuable raw materials, I have been using solid shampoos for some time now. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to find any of these products in Migros. Would it be possible for you to include such solid shampoos in your range? Schwarzkopf, for example, has such products, and I would be very happy about that!
That's fantastic! I've been interested in solid shampoo for a while now, but haven't found one with an anti-dandruff effect yet. Is Migros perhaps thinking of something like this?
With the solid shampoo you won't have any more dandruff, of course ;o)

I was so skeptical about solid soap etc. at first and now I'm a total fan. I can't imagine my household without solid shampoo, deodorant, soap etc. anymore. The more choice there is, the better!

I grew up with it, liquid soap came later.↵And I remember it very well, muddy soft soaps, soap dishes had to be cleaned several times a day as well as washbasins and KO. ↵Hmhmhm then came magnetic soap holders...... Soap not so soft and squishy, but it dripped onto the sink. ↵From time to time the magnet came loose... ↵↵Also great for a 1-2 person household.↵For more - e.g. families and now with Corona (more frequent than normal hand washing... 🙄😳) I would have ZERO incentive to buy it.↵The "LUXURY" of liquid soap, shampoo I need.↵↵How do you do it with shampoo, do you have a soap dish? Today's showers and bathtubs don't have any space for shower soap, shampoo and possibly various.... ↵1x greasy hair, 1x dandruff, 1x normal, 1x child... Where should I put this and how? 😳?↵Is there anything?

The solid shampoo is available from various suppliers and can no longer be compared to normal soap as we know it. The shampoo is not sticky and only foams when you lather it on your head. There are such great little bags in which you can store it or the shampoos that have a string attached. Then I always put suction cups on the shower wall and hang my shampoo on them, they also come in different colors, so you can easily distinguish them. Maybe that's an option for you :) otherwise just feel your way slowly and try out what's good and what's not. :-) I also had my healthy skepticism at the beginning.

I'm totally at war with absorbent buttons🙄 ↵The rest sounds interesting. ↵Do the solid soaps have phenoxyethanol as a preservative? Would you check 😘 Bütte 😊? ↵I have an extreme reaction to it - it's a preservative and is contained in most shower gels, shampoos and creams - TOTALLY annoying. I scratch myself like crazy and get a rash similar to neurodermatitis ↵But it sounds very interesting, maybe it would at least be something for the rest of the family 🤔😉😃😃↵↵Ps don't have to look right now, but if there is time, I would be happy to get some info 😃

Hey, sure. I had a look at the ones I have here at home and they're free of them. But I have the organic versions anyway, which are completely 0% free of these nasty substances. Yes, I certainly have an intolerance to certain substances myself, so I can understand you very well :D I then did another quick Google search and have already found 2-3 that are also free from these preservatives. If you have an unpackaged store near you, you can get very good advice there and they usually explain everything to you in detail. That's how I got started :D Hope I was able to help you! If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask :) Best regards!

Ah thank you sounds extremely good! ↵↵And no, there is no such unpackaged store here. But maybe a short distance away. I'll have to ask Aunt Google, she knows almost everything. ↵Merci viel mol, I don't have any questions at the moment. ↵Hmhm yes, it's really annoying with the allergy. Especially if you secretly mix the substance into "my" shampoo, shower gels, soap, cream etc. at some point. Then I can look for something new.😡↵I'm always reading about the ingredients. 😒🥺

I think it's also a very good alternative to "normal" shampoos, especially when you're on the go. I travel a lot (or at least I did until recently) and this form of care product is also very practical if, for example, you only want to travel with hand luggage and don't want to use hotel shampoos (at least I'm not a big fan of them). Because they are not a liquid, they are safe at the security checkpoint and don't take up any space in the transparent bag. The effect is also the same for me... I would even say that my hair stays fresh for longer afterwards.
Hello Movimento, thank you for your contribution. I am happy to let you know that we are already working on this. We are planning to add three hair soaps to our range. I can't tell you exactly when they will be available yet - they are expected to be on sale from fall 2020. Best regards, Luisa
Dear Luisa, hello Movimento, first of all, great praise for this environmentally conscious thinking. The only question I have is how will this soap be packaged? In plastic? That's the problem, many things, no matter what you buy, are wrapped in plastic again. Sometimes you can buy the plastic in these plastic bags that are offered by the municipalities and bring them for disposal, but actually you should make sure to buy little plastic wrapped things when shopping. I find it very difficult. Lettuce, for example, could be protected with a kind of wrapping paper instead of plastic, which is how it was for a short time. Praise that there are cloth bags for fruit and open vegetables. It is clear to me that many things are not easy to implement immediately for reasons of hygiene, but it would be time to think more in this direction when it comes to packaging. I would be very pleased! Kind regards and have a nice Sunday Esprit1

Hi @Esprit1 In most cases, packaging only contributes a negligible amount to the environmental impact of a product. If you consider the entire life cycle of a product, the extraction of raw materials or, in the case of some products, their use (e.g. energy consumption for light bulbs), cause the greatest environmental impact. It therefore makes sense in many cases to package products to protect them from spoilage and extend their shelf life. However, packaging a product is a science in itself. Every packaging has to meet different requirements and depends on various factors. But rest assured, wherever it makes sense, plastic is replaced or reduced. For example, we have also optimized the Anna's Best Saladbowl bowl. This has enabled us to save almost 50% plastic, and we have been able to save around 11 tons of plastic per year since optimizing our vine tomato peel. There is also a very current and good project in the newly renovated Migros store in Baden: https://www.migros.ch/de/Magazin/2020/Offenverkauf.html Best regards Sebastian
