Answer 7

***Yes, it's recyclable.  Awhile back consumers though you couldn't recycle the container and Pert was bad to use because of the chemicals in the bottle.  I called the recycling company when this was going around.  

SLS/SLES or SLS/ALES was though to harm the atmosphere thus contaminating the bottle making the bottle un-recyclable - ALL UNTRUE...

*** Do your products contain SLS/SLES or ALS/ALES?

      We typically use Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (ALS) and Ammonium Laureth Sulfate (ALES) as the cleaning and lathering agents in our shampoos but Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) are also common ingredients. We're not aware of any harmful effects associated with the use of ALS/ALES or SLS/SLES in consumer products. These supposed safety concerns stem from some misquoted research and have no scientific basis.

      The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR), an outside panel of experts that reviews ingredient safety for the entire cosmetic industry, evaluated the safety of SLS/SLES over 15 years ago. Their assessment showed SLS/SLES is safe for use in cosmetic products. Its findings were reported in the Journal of America College of Toxicology (volume 2, issue 5, 1983). The CIR is a program of the Cosmetic Toiletry and Fragrance Association (CTFA), a US trade association.
