Tom’s of Maine Sustainability Actions

Contributes profits to nature

We contribute 10% of our annual profits to support organizations and individuals who are working to protect nature for future generations. This includes our major partnership with American Forests and other organizations striving to create a more vibrant and resilient environment.

Uses a stewardship model

Every ingredient we use goes through our Stewardship Model, a rigorous vetted process across four criteria: natural source, safety, effectiveness, and environmental responsibility. Naturally Sourced & Derived: We use ingredients sourced or derived from plants, minerals, or the earth. Free-From: We are "Free From" artificial flavors, fragrances, colors, sweeteners, and preservatives. Cruelty-Free: We do not test on animals.

Encourages employee volunteering

Every employee is encouraged to use 5% of their paid time (up to 12 days a year) volunteering. Whether repairing local trails, removing invasive species, or organizing beach cleanups, we are out there doing the work to keep our communities—and our nature—thriving.

Certified B Corp

Tom’s of Maine is a certified B Corp. This means we’re one of over 2000 (and growing!) B Corp companies in the US dedicated to balancing business growth with doing good for our communities. We’re endorsed by international nonprofit B Lab as meeting its high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.

Debuted recyclable tubes

That’s why we were proud to debut the first-of-its-kind recyclable toothpaste tube back in 2019. The majority of our toothpaste tubes are designed for recycling.**Your community may not yet accept tubes for recycling. Check locally.
