Why does Weleda use Aluminium Tubes to package the creams, gels and ointments?
Aluminium tubes protect and prevent contamination of the ingredients in Weleda creams. The tubes used are coated on the inside with a resistant lacquer which prevents interaction of the product, or the user, with the aluminium. We avoid the use of plastic tubes because some creams and ointments may be affected by an interaction between the cream (particularly those containing essential oils) and plastic.
