AHC's Top 5 Sustainable Practices: Leading with Green Innovation in Personal Care

15 Aug 2024

At American Hygienics Corporation (AHC), we are committed to pioneering sustainability within the personal care industry. Our mission is clear: to integrate eco-friendly practices throughout our operations while maintaining the highest standards of product quality in our wet wipes and diapers. Here, we outline our top five sustainable practices that not only enhance our ecological footprint but also set industry benchmarks for green innovation in personal care:


1. Comprehensive Use of Solar Energy

AHC has made a significant investment in solar technology, transitioning to 100% solar-powered operations. This initiative not only significantly reduces our carbon footprint but also generates enough surplus energy to power 2,000 homes annually. By using solar energy for 100% of our manufacturing processes, we not only sustain our operations but also positively contribute to the surrounding community, enhancing our commitment to renewable energy and showcasing our leadership in sustainable manufacturing.


2. Advanced Energy-Efficient Technologies

Our facilities are equipped with the latest energy-saving technologies, including LED lighting and high-efficiency servo motors on production lines. These innovations lead to a 75% savings in power consumption and a 33% reduction in energy usage, demonstrating our commitment to operational efficiency and environmental sustainability. Adopting these technologies represents a crucial step in minimizing our ecological impact while maintaining high production standards.


3. Sustainable Raw Material Sourcing

At AHC we prioritize environmental responsibility in our sourcing decisions, using over 40% of raw materials that are 100% plant-based and biodegradable. This decision has enabled the creation of our patented bamboo-based wet wipes and diapers, which have already revolutionized the personal care market, especially in the baby care industry.

Our sustainable raw material sourcing also extends to our packaging options, which include innovative bio-plastic bags derived from plant materials that are fully compostable. These practices not only ensure the sustainability of our products but also support the circular economy, reducing waste and facilitating a lower environmental impact across the lifecycle of our products.


4. Zero Water Discharge and Water Reuse

Our water management strategy includes a zero water discharge policy during pretreatment stages and the reuse of 6% of the water from secondary processes. These measures demonstrate our commitment to conserving water resources, a critical component of sustainable manufacturing, and help mitigate the impact of our operations on local water systems.


5. Innovation in Flushable Wipe Technology

AHC leads the global market in the development of flushable wipes, produced with eco-friendly and biodegradable materials. Our flushable wipes meet the highest standards set by IWSFG/INDA/EDANA, ensuring they disintegrate effectively to minimize waste. Manufactured in our solar-powered facility, these wipes offer superior cleaning, are hypoallergenic, and provide enhanced freshness, making them safe for all skin types and environmentally friendly. This innovative approach demonstrates AHC's dedication to reducing environmental impact and promoting eco-safe disposal.

These five key strategies illustrate AHC's dedication to sustainability, reinforcing our role as a leader in eco-friendly innovation in the personal care sector, including wet wipes and diapers OEM manufacturing.
