Products
Why are newkee tubes thinner than usual?
We take the issues of sustainability and environmental protection very seriously. That's why we save around 40% plastic compared to the packaging material of conventional care products and make sure that we use 100% recyclable raw materials in the production process. For this reason, our tubes are a good 50% thinner and not as dimensionally stable as classic care products. But you can use newkee with a clear conscience, because both the cap and the tube are made of the same material. This so-called mono-material is much easier to reuse and does not have to be separated into its individual components in a time-consuming recycling process, as is the case with yoghurt pots. In concrete terms, this means that you can put the tubes directly into the yellow bin and conveniently dispose of them as plastic waste - without any negative impact on the environment.
Is newkee suitable for people with allergies?
Our products are without exception vegan, fragrance-free, without parabens, without colourants and preservatives, without PEG/PPG emulsifiers.
Are the products free of animal testing?
Ja, unsere Produkte sind nicht an Tieren getestet worden. Außerdem sind sie vegan. Das bedeutet, sie sind frei von Inhaltsstoffen tierischen Ursprungs. Wir finden, dass tierische Bestandteile in Kosmetik nichts zu suchen haben.
Are all formulas microplastic-free?
Yes, we are proud to say that we completely avoid microplastics in all our formulas.
How long are the products shelf life?
Our products have an unopened shelf life of at least 30 months. Once opened, you should consume them within 6 months. However, if stored without large temperature fluctuations and contamination, they can last longer.
Where are the products produced?
All newkee products are made in Germany. The packaging takes place in Marburg.
Are the products comedogenic?
The products are non-comedogenic, they do not clog pores.
Why do hair shampoo and body wash from newkee not foam so much?
newkee is not only the new key in body care. newkee also offers you a completely new shower and care experience. You can experience this most intensively with our shampoos and body wash care products. Because they are not only absolutely odourless and do not contain any perfume. By avoiding chemical processes and unnatural ingredients, they also develop less foam. However, this does not mean that the cleansing effect is affected. In fact, the skin dries out much less and there is no unpleasantly tense feeling on the skin after showering.
What does newkee do in terms of environmental and animal protection?
In the production of our vegan care products, we deliberately refrain from dermatological experiments with animals. In addition, we are one of the first manufacturers in Germany to use a tube material that is around 50% thinner and use up to 40% less plastic than conventional suppliers. This makes us pioneers in sustainability and climate-friendly care products in this country.
