That would be something. Many other shower gels (e.g. Milk and Honey) have this. So please also for the men's line.

Hello ilnovecento,
Thank you for your message. I think refill packs are a good idea. I will pass it on to the product managers.

Hello ilovecento
According to the product managers, the demand for the i am Milk and Honey shower gel among men is too low. That's why we can't offer refill bags. As space on the Migros shelves is limited, we can only offer refill bags for the most popular products.
I hope you understand this.
Kind regards

Refill bags are a good thing. It would be even better if there was no plastic in the shower gel (polyquaternium-7).

Hello moz,
thank you for your comment. Basically, I understand the concern about problematic additives in food and other consumer products, such as soaps. I would be happy to forward your comment to the product managers for clarification. Unfortunately, I cannot say whether this ingredient is needed or what the alternatives would be.
Kind regards,

Dear moz
The person responsible for the product told me the following about polyquaternium-7:
It consists of long molecules that are individually dissolved in water and therefore do not cause any problems for mussels and other animals. Of course, PQ-7 - like all polyquaterniums - is not particularly biodegradable.
However, this is not a problem for sewage treatment plants because these molecules combine with anionic surfactants that are also present (and readily degradable) and are removed with the sewage sludge.
The polyquaterniums are then degraded over time, but not as quickly as "readily degradable" substances. In addition, polyquaterniums are used in very small quantities (a few tenths of a percent) in shower gels and shampoos, much less than surfactants, which also facilitates their elimination from wastewater.

Dear Tanja
Thank you for your effort and the explanation. I'm still not going to be a fan of this stuff. Just as I'm not a fan of plastic particles in toothpastes and scrubs.
Merci
