Kuishi Launches Groundbreaking Carbon-Positive Dispensing Solutions in the UK

Sustainability leader Kuishi has unveiled the UK’s first carbon-positive dispensing solutions, designed for both homes and businesses. These refillable dispensers are a revolutionary step towards drastically reducing single-use plastic waste and fostering a more sustainable way of living.

In the last year, Kuishi has helped prevent the disposal of over 1 million plastic bottles by encouraging customers to refill soap dispensers instead of purchasing single-use plastic alternatives. This achievement highlights the brand’s dedication to environmental responsibility and sustainable innovation.

After a standout year, including partnerships with eco-conscious hotels like The Pig and Jumeirah Port Soller, Kuishi is now poised to introduce its products and services to the U.S. market in the second quarter of 2025.

How Kuishi Achieves Carbon Positivity

Kuishi’s products go beyond carbon neutrality by removing, preventing, or offsetting 20% more carbon than their entire lifecycle produces, from production to recycling. This cradle-to-grave approach is achieved through several key strategies:

  • Refillable Design: Replacing single-use plastics, each dispenser is made to be refilled repeatedly, reducing waste.
  • Sustainable Materials: Crafted from durable, recyclable materials like glass, these dispensers are built to endure.
  • Ethical Manufacturing: The manufacturing process is designed to minimise carbon emissions and utilises renewable energy wherever feasible.
  • Proactive Offsetting: Kuishi collaborates with Carbon Sense to ensure ethical carbon offsetting through initiatives such as reforestation, carbon capture, and renewable energy projects, creating a net-positive impact.

Addressing the Plastic Crisis

Plastic bottle waste remains one of the most pressing environmental challenges today. Kuishi’s refillable solutions provide an elegant and practical alternative, replacing disposable plastic products in homes and businesses alike.

In 2024 alone, Kuishi’s customers—including households, hotels, and businesses—refilled dispensers over 1 million times, saving an equivalent number of plastic bottles from polluting the environment. This success reflects the growing shift towards sustainability and Kuishi’s role in driving this change.

“Our mission is to empower people to make a difference in their daily lives,” said Stephanie Melarickas, Founder and Director at Kuishi. “Refilling dispensers instead of throwing away single-use bottles is a small change that makes a big impact, and we’re proud to support our customers in that effort.”

The company is also focused on supporting community projects aimed at reducing waste and promoting sustainable practices.

B Corporation Certification: Commitment to Purpose and Profit

In 2024, Kuishi achieved B Corporation certification, a prestigious recognition for companies that meet rigorous standards of social and environmental accountability and transparency.

“Achieving B Corp status and launching the UK’s first carbon-positive dispensers are milestones that reflect our core mission,” said Mark Hopkins. “We’re not only rethinking how products are used but also tackling the larger issue of single-use plastic waste while positively impacting the planet.”

Sustainability for Everyday Life

Kuishi’s carbon-positive dispensing solutions represent a shift in how sustainability is approached in daily living. By offering durable, refillable, and visually appealing dispensers, Kuishi is empowering customers to embrace sustainable habits without compromising on design or function.
