Grove Collaborative and Oceanic Preservation Society launch The Unplastic Shop to help consumers reduce plastic exposure at home.

Grove Collaborative and Oceanic Preservation Society launch The Unplastic Shop to help consumers reduce plastic exposure at home. Launched March 16, the new collection features ~500 vetted products and education to support practical, everyday swaps. SAN FRANCISCO-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Grove Collaborative Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: GROV) ("Grove" or "the Company"), the world's first plastic neutral retailer, leading sustainable consumer products company, Certified B Corporation, and Public Benefit Corporation, today announced a new partnership with Oceanic Preservation Society (OPS) to launch The Unplastic Shop - an education-led, curated shopping destination designed to help customers reduce plastic exposure where it matters most in everyday routines. For decades, plastic has been framed primarily as an environmental issue. Microplastics and certain chemical additives used in plastics and personal care products have been detected in human blood, brain tissue, placentas, and breast milk. Emerging science suggests links between some plastic-associated chemicals - including phthalates, BPA, PFAS, and other endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) - and potential impacts on fertility, cardiovascular health, and reproductive development. "People are waking up to the reality that plastic isn't only an environmental issue - it's increasingly personal," said Jeff Yurcisin, CEO of Grove Collaborative. "Our customers want clear guidance and better options they can trust. With OPS, we're proud to launch The Unplastic Shop as a one-stop destination for vetted swaps and education to help families reduce plastic exposure at home - without compromising on performance." Unlike a full assortment marketplace, The Unplastic Shop is intentionally curated. The Unplastic Shop features approximately 500 products, each individually reviewed against Grove's standards and OPS-informed criteria, spanning kitchen, personal care, cleaning, laundry, baby, pet, and household essentials. Key features include room-by-room shopping, education-first content (including "Top 10 Tips to Unplastic Your Life"), and starter sets designed to make switching simpler. Research suggests repeated, low-level exposure - not one-time contact - is how certain plastic-associated chemicals can enter our bodies over time. That's why The Unplastic Shop focuses on high-impact upgrades: the products and routines you interact with every day, in the places where exposure can add up fastest - without needing to eliminate plastic overnight. The collection focuses on high-frequency routines - such as food storage, cookware, oral care, hair care, laundry, and household cleaning - where heat, friction, or repeated use may increase exposure over time. "We're now finding plastics in our brains, our hearts, our placentas - even in breast milk," said Louie Psihoyos, Co-Director of The Plastic Detox and Founder of the Oceanic Preservation Society. "And a big part of that exposure comes from products we use every day. Once you realize how many plastic-linked chemicals are in those products, you start asking a simple question: what can I do to reduce my exposure? That's why we created this campaign - and why we created The Unplastic Shop." Products in The Unplastic Shop meet criteria developed in partnership with OPS and Grove's internal product standards team, prioritizing: * No plastic touches anything you ingest * Free from BPA and "BP" alternatives * Free from PFAS and other "forever chemicals" * Selected to avoid endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and other substances associated with hormone disruption * Reduced-plastic packaging or plastic-free alternatives whenever possible The Unplastic Shop was curated as part of the "Unplastic Your Life" campaign led by OPS - developed to help people move from awareness to action through education, advocacy, and product swaps that reduce plastic exposure and reliance on single-use plastics over time.

Grove Collaborative posts $42.4M Q4 revenue, returns to positive EBITDA after e-commerce migration woes

Grove Collaborative reported Q4 revenue of $42.4 million, down 14.3% year-over-year, but returned to positive adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million, meeting its revised 2025 guidance. The company posted a net loss of $1.6 million, compared with a $12.6 million loss in the prior-year period. A problematic e-commerce platform migration drove higher churn and a 25% decline in direct-to-consumer orders, prompting Grove to slash advertising spending from approximately $33 million to $1 million. Active customers fell 13% to 599,000, though net revenue per order rose to $69.50 and gross margin improved to 53.0%. For 2026, management expects revenue of $140–150 million and roughly break-even adjusted EBITDA, with sequential improvement as a new loyalty programme and redesigned mobile app restore customer retention.
