Our philosophy
The Zero-Waste Challenge
smol Dream Lab was conceived with cradle-to-cradle (C2C) as its backbone and ethos. The C2C design approach considers the potential environmental and health impact a product and its ingredients will have on the ecosystem after it's used. The primary goal is to create products that are safe and waste free. smol Dream Lab utilizes lightweight, compostable packaging to decrease our ecological footprint from cradle to cradle. We are invested in finding solutions to the overuse of plastic and non-biodegradable ingredients.
We aim to educate and inspire a new generation of eco-friendly consumers on ingredient life cycles and their potential environmental impact.
“
We welcome the idea of being innovators, disrupters, and educators. We hope to expand into other plastic-heavy, non-sustainable areas.
