Is Gillette sustainable?

We do not yet score enough Gillette products to give the brand a sustainability rating. P&G’s Ambition 2030 includes 100% recyclable packaging, 50% virgin plastic reduction, and carbon neutrality; Gillette offers refillable razors but still relies heavily on disposable cartridges.

We read sustainability as verifiable practice, not marketing: third-party certification, packaging design, sourcing disclosure and published, dated targets. Claims without evidence score as unverified.
