Platinum Single Edge Razor Blades

Compact by Design is an initiative we created to identify products that, although they may not always appear visually different, have a more efficient design. By removing excess air and water, these products require less packaging, becoming more efficient to ship. At scale, these small differences in product size and weight lead to significant reductions in carbon emissions.

One example of a product that qualifies for the Compact by Design program is the Lord Platinum single edge razor blades. These 100 single edge razor blades are excellent for professional barbers as well as everyday use. The compact design of the packaging helps to lower the overall size and weight of the product, resulting in more efficient transportation and reduced environmental impact.

The focus on sustainability is a key driver behind the Compact by Design initiative. Small changes in product size and weight can have a substantial effect on carbon emissions. By identifying and promoting these more efficient product designs, we aim to make a meaningful contribution towards reducing the environmental footprint of the items consumers use daily.

The underlying principle is simple: products that are designed to be more compact and use resources more effectively can lead to significant benefits when scaled across millions of units. This could involve reducing the amount of packaging material, eliminating unnecessary components, or optimizing the product's shape and dimensions.

While the visual differences may not always be immediately apparent, the environmental impact of these design optimizations can be significant. By shipping less air and water, products become lighter and require fewer resources for transportation, storage, and distribution. This, in turn, translates to lower carbon emissions throughout the product's lifecycle.

The Compact by Design program serves as a way to highlight and encourage these types of design improvements. By recognizing products that have found innovative ways to reduce their environmental footprint, we hope to inspire more manufacturers to follow suit and prioritize sustainability in their product development processes.

Ultimately, the goal is to make it easier for consumers to identify and choose products that are designed with efficiency and environmental impact in mind. Small changes at the individual level can add up to substantial collective impact when multiplied across millions of consumers and products. By focusing on sustainability through initiatives like Compact by Design, we can work towards a future with a reduced carbon footprint and a more sustainable planet.
