Biom's refillable cleaning wipes are available at about 600 Target stores and online.ThePackHub
A new refillable cleaning wipes brand, Biom, has launched at Target as part of the U.S. retailer’s initiative to introduce more sustainable products. Biom’s reusable dispenser comes in neutral colors and the biodegradable wipes are available in refill packs for around $7. These wipes, made without polyester or polypropylene, offer a convenient, clutter-free alternative to traditional brands. Since its 2021 launch, Biom has raised $4.5 million and seen a 149% increase in sales from 2022 to 2023. Target’s inclusion of Biom in approximately 600 stores and online reflects the growing demand for sustainable consumer products. Target’s sustainability efforts, such as the Target Zero and Target Clean labels, aim to reduce virgin plastic use in packaging by 20% from 2020 levels, although recent data indicates an 8% increase so far. This initiative aligns with Target’s goals to explore reuse and refill alternatives.
