ReThinkOil has always embraced sustainability. From the selection of our sustainably harvested wild oregano oil to the careful consideration of a manufacturing partner for our capsules, we have been a leader in our industry since 2015.
In 2019 we began talks with the Green Cell Foam Company to redesign our packaging with a more sustainable option. Our new protective foam inserts are made from non-GMO cornstarch. Paired up with our recyclable, reusable paperboard tube, or used as a standalone wrap, your product is well protected in transit. We have taken great care in selecting materials that protect our products and the environment at the same time.
The COVID-19 crisis depleted 6 months of our inventory in just a few short weeks. Because of this, we have launched our zero-waste packaging ahead of schedule and are utilizing multiple versions of it- so if you place multiple orders you may notice different shapes or configurations of foam, with or without tubes or boxes. All of these provide equal protection during shipment.
When you purchase in the future after we have fully restocked, please check the product listing for the specific packaging you would like to receive.
Whether you choose just our new eco-friendly zero-waste foam or add the reusable protective paperboard tube with newly designed foam that so many of you love for gift giving and storage, you can feel good about minimizing non-compostable waste when you purchase from ReThinkOil.
We're excited to be continuing this journey, and we hope you'll join us.

I am only one, but I am one.
I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do.

Green Cell Foam dissolves in water— put it in the sink under running water and watch it "melt" safely down the drain; it even biodegrades in seawater and freshwater! Or place into a bowl of water and let sit to dissolve. Pour mixture onto plants— our disposable packaging is great plant food!
Green Cell Foam is compostable in any residential/commercial compost facility.
It will decompose in 60 days or less when in a moist soil environment.
Green Cell Foam burns cleanly and safely in fireplaces, firepits, and power plants.
It works great to start your barbecue or summer campfire!
