Custom Environmentally Friendly Razor Manufacturers

Are eco-friendly razors suitable for sensitive skin?

Basic features of eco-friendly razors
The biggest difference between eco-friendly razors and traditional razors lies in their green and environmentally friendly attributes in material selection, structural design and packaging. Commonly used eco-friendly materials include:
Bio-based plastics (such as PLA, PBS, etc.)
PCR (post-consumer recycled plastics)
Natural bamboo or wooden handles
Recyclable stainless steel blades
Plastic-free or degradable packaging
The introduction of these materials not only helps to reduce the burden on the environment, but also makes the overall touch of the razor more natural and gentle. But is this enough to meet the shaving needs of sensitive skin? It needs to be analyzed from multiple dimensions.
Key needs of sensitive skin for razors
The skin barrier of people with sensitive skin is relatively fragile and easily affected by blade irritation, friction or chemical residues. Common problems include redness, dryness, itching after shaving, folliculitis, etc. Therefore, razors suitable for sensitive skin should have the following characteristics:
Sharp and smooth blades to reduce pulling and repeated shaving;
Safe blade angle design to avoid cuts;
Skin-friendly material and lubricating strip design;
No excessive fragrances, dyes or irritating chemical coatings.
Can environmentally friendly razors meet the needs of sensitive skin?
1. Blade quality is the core
Whether it is environmentally friendly or not, the craftsmanship of the blade determines the comfort of shaving. Since its establishment in 1993, Ningbo Chuangxin Cutting-Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd. has always insisted on blade accuracy and edge processing as the core of its products. Its own brand "VIVAC" series of environmentally friendly razors use a stainless steel substrate imported from Germany, combined with precision grinding and anti-corrosion coating technology to ensure that the blade is sharp but does not irritate the skin, meeting the basic shaving needs of sensitive skin.
2. Multi-layer blades optimize the shaving experience
Environmentally friendly razors can also use a multi-layer structure, such as three-layer, five-layer or even six-layer blades, which can disperse the pressure on the skin, making shaving smoother and less pulling. Ningbo Chuangxin currently has more than 300 razor products with different structures. Its environmentally friendly product line also includes a multi-layer blade design to provide a more delicate shaving experience for people with sensitive skin.
3. Lubricating strips and skin-friendly materials add points
Most environmentally friendly razors are equipped with plant-based lubricating strips, such as aloe vera, vitamin E or coconut oil extract, which can effectively reduce the friction coefficient between the blade and the skin. Ningbo Chuangxin Cutting-Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd. has worked closely with domestic and foreign raw material suppliers in the development of lubricating strip formulas to develop alcohol-free and fragrance-free formulas designed specifically for sensitive skin.
At the same time, environmentally friendly materials such as PLA or bamboo have a soft touch after polishing, reducing contact irritation. The company's R&D team ensures that the environmentally friendly structure does not sacrifice the feel through material adjustment and handle curve optimization, thus taking into account both environmental protection and sensitive skin friendliness.
4. Non-irritating additive packaging to reduce external interference
Traditional razors often contain preservatives or fragrances in their packaging or lubricants, which are potentially irritating to sensitive skin. Environmentally friendly razors tend to use food-grade inks, plastic-free packaging and water-based adhesives to further reduce the risk of skin allergies. Ningbo Chuangxin has fully adopted environmentally friendly packaging solutions in export products, which comply with EU REACH standards and have passed skin compatibility tests of multiple international customers.

How to clean and maintain environmentally friendly razors

Structural characteristics and cleaning requirements of environmentally friendly razors
Eco-friendly razors usually consist of the following parts:
Blade module (multi-layer stainless steel sheet)
Lubricating strip (plant ingredients)
Handle (bioplastic, recycled plastic, bamboo, etc.)
Connection structure (removable/disposable)
Different materials have different requirements for cleaning methods. For example, PLA bioplastic has low heat resistance and cannot be sterilized at high temperature; natural bamboo is afraid of moisture and needs to be avoided from soaking in water for a long time. Therefore, the cleaning and maintenance of environmentally friendly razors should take into account the three goals of hygiene, environmentally friendly material characteristics and comfort of use.
Daily cleaning method: simple but skillful
1. Rinse immediately after each use
After using the razor, the blade head should be rinsed with warm water immediately to remove shaving foam, hair and sebum residues. Do not use hot water to rinse the environmentally friendly handle to avoid deformation and cracking of bioplastic or bamboo and wood structures. Ningbo Chuangxin Cutting-Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd. has optimized the design of the blade drainage structure in its "VIVAC" environmentally friendly series, making the blade gap wider, rinsing smoother, and cleaning more thoroughly.
2. Use a small brush to assist in cleaning the blade gap
Although the multi-layer blade design makes shaving smoother, the blade gap is easy to hide dirt. It is recommended to use a soft-bristled toothbrush or a special shaving brush to gently brush from the outside to the inside to avoid scratching your fingers or damaging the lubricating strip. The blade holders of the multi-layer razors in Ningbo Chuangxin products are finely injection molded, with a stable structure, not easy to accumulate dirt, and easier maintenance.
3. Avoid patting and drying
Many users are accustomed to patting or patting the razor to remove moisture, but this may cause the environmentally friendly material handle to crack or the blade head to loosen. The method of wrapping with a towel and patting or air drying should be adopted. For PLA or bamboo handle razors, natural drying can extend the life.
Deep cleaning recommendation: once a week to extend the service life
If you use the razor frequently, it is recommended to perform a deep cleaning once a week, especially for multi-layer blade products.
The method is as follows:
Prepare warm water and add 1-2 drops of neutral detergent (such as baby shower gel or weak acid facial cleanser);
Soak the blade for 5 minutes to soften grease and attachments;
Use a small brush to thoroughly clean the gap between the blades and the back of the blade holder;
Rinse with clean water, dry or press with a paper towel to remove water.
This method is not only suitable for traditional razors, but also for environmentally friendly razors with complex structures to avoid rusting of the blades or unsmooth shaving due to blockage.
Maintenance tips: Extend the use cycle of blades and handles
1. Keep a dry environment
Even if the razor blade is made of high-quality stainless steel, it is inevitable that the sharpness of the blade will be affected by residual moisture. After shaving, please place the knife in a ventilated and dry place, and avoid placing it in a closed and hot bathroom cabinet. The R&D team of Ningbo Chuangxin Cutting-Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd. places special emphasis on the design optimization of ventilation protection structure. Some products use transparent blade covers to effectively help users maintain a dry state.
2. Regularly replace the blade head
Environmentally friendly razors are not "used all the time". Reasonable replacement of blade modules helps shave hygiene and reduce skin discomfort. It is usually recommended:
Normal skin: Replace every 5-10 times;
Sensitive skin: Replace every 3-5 times;
Users with thick beards: High frequency of use, the replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened.
In the "VIVAC" environmentally friendly series of products, Ningbo Chuangxin Cutting-Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd. provides a replaceable blade head structure, which takes into account environmental protection and convenience, and avoids the waste of resources caused by discarding the entire blade.
Lubricating strip protection
The vegetable oil components in the lubricating strip are easily affected by water vapor and deteriorated. Avoid frequent friction or touching the surface of the lubricating strip after use, and prevent long-term direct sunlight to ensure that its soft and moist properties are not lost.
