You may have thought the metal tube was selected for its modern aesthetic (that was part of it), but the main reasons Davids comes in metal tubes is to maintain maximum freshness and for their ability to be recycled. This item comes packaged in a recyclable aluminum tube and an FSC certified cardboard box. Please recycle. (See notes on recycling below)   End of Life Recycling Please note, you will need to clean the paste out of the tube before recycling it. Here’s how to do it! 1. Take some scissors or shears and cut off both ends of the tube. 2. Cut a slit the full length of the tube to fold open the tube to access the inside of the tube for cleaning….the edges of the metal are sharp, so please be careful. 3. Wash off the excess paste with running water. A toothbrush can be helpful here for removing all the paste. 4. Discard metal in the recycle bin.     About the Company Davids Toothpaste was started with a vision to create the highest quality premium natural oral care with a commitment to sustainability.
