SHELTON, Conn., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Edgewell Personal Care (NYSE: EPC) today announced that, as part of its Sustainable Care 2030 strategy, its global portfolio of men's and women's disposable razors – including Schick® Xtreme 3® men's1 and Skintimate® three blade women's razors – now has handles made with up to 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. The Company also launched its new U.S. program to encourage the recycling of its disposable razors and to provide an alternative to curbside recycling programs, which typically do not accept razors.

Edgewell Personal Care announced a new U.S. program to encourage the recycling of its disposable razors and to provide an alternative to curbside recycling programs, which typically do not accept razors. Through a third-party partner, all returned Xtreme®, Skintimate® and Quattro® disposable razors will be recycled into new products.

By incorporating recycled materials into its products and packaging, Edgewell is offering consumers a more environmentally conscious alternative than before without having to compromise on price or performance. By changing the materials, products and packaging with which the razors are made, consumers can feel even better about purchasing the Xtreme® and Skintimate® products they love and trust. The cost of the product and quality of the shave will remain the same, but the environmental footprint will be reduced.
