The Beauty of Simplicity
BERTIOLI | AT THYME
Gone are the days when you arrive in your hotel room to find a collection of bathroom minis at your disposal, only for them to be replaced with fresh ones each time housekeeping pop by. The time of the hotel mini is limited, with many hospitality businesses making the switch to refillable bottles that cannot be taken away. But what about taking it step further?
980 tonnes of travel-sized products are dumped annually
Our breathing and bathing collection embodies Thyme’s mission, to conserve the beauty of the land through generations of love, for generations to come. Our 3-in-1 Hair & Body bars will be waiting for guests in each of our rooms, with an aim to inspire and show those that we welcome through our doors, that luxury and efficacy can still be fulfilled without the harm to our beautiful earth that is caused by single-use plastics.
“Of the 15 million people who buy travel size products each year, over 6.5 million adults do not recycle the plastic waste. This amounts to 980.8 tonnes of travel miniatures being dumped every year – the equivalent of two-and-a-half Boeing 747s.”
We encourage our guests to take our bar home, to use again and again, in a bid to eliminate the idea that shampoo has to come in a plastic bottle.
We are at a moment in time when our planet and nature need our help.
We aim to instil a love of nature and consolidate the understanding that in nurturing nature, we nurture ourselves.
“The number of shampoo bottles condemned to landfills in a year could fill 1,164 football fields.”
A typical shampoo or conditioner bottle carries 85% water, demanding the use of plastic bottles and dramatically increasing the carbon footprint of transportation. Our shampoo and conditioning bars are designed with minimal packaging and concentrated formulations. The final product are luxurious and effective, replacing the polluting clutter of bathroom plastics and eliminating excess water to significantly reduce our carbon footprint.
We are passionate about showing others that you do not have to have a bathroom filled with dozens of lotions and potions in single-use plastic bottles to achieve luxury, and that
true elegance lies in the beauty of simplicity.
Be the Change. Our collection of Rivermint bathing bars, breathing balm, bath salts, hand and body lotion and candle can be purchased from our Shop.
