Plant-based personal care brand OC Naturals has teamed up with Australia Zoo to launch a limited-edition body wash range to support the zoo’s animal welfare programs.
Every purchase from the range will help support the zoo’s wildlife conservation initiatives, including its adopt-an-animal program, endangered species breeding program, rehabilitation program, and wildlife sanctuaries.
Available in two scents – Nourishing Frangipani and Nectarine & French Pear & Apple – the limited-edition body-wash range features designs by Brigitte Hanley of Frankie B Design, incorporating her signature animal and nature-inspired prints to create the packaging’s artwork.
In addition, the products are plant-based, vegan, and certified cruelty-free.
“Australia Zoo is thrilled to be joining forces with OC Naturals to support the Adopt an Animal program,” said Bindi Irwin, wildlife conservationist.
“Our efforts revolve around wildlife conservation globally, and it is incredible to be involved in an initiative that supports our mission of protecting wildlife and wild places.”
According to the Australian Zoo, aside from the 37 animals part of the adoption program, it also cares for more than 1200 animals, and without access to government funding, the program plays a crucial role to provide support for the animals’ needs.
“Being a cause close to our hearts, OC Naturals has been a proud supporter of Australia Zooʼs conservation work for many years through being a sponsor of the zooʼs annual crocodile research trip,” said Elise Synnot, marketing manager at Natures Organics, the parent company of OC Naturals.
“Continuing our partnership, we couldnʼt think of a more fitting collaboration between our Australian made and owned brand teaming up with the iconic Australia Zoo, to raise much-needed funds and advocate for the animals without a voice.”
OC Naturals x Australia Zoo’s limited edition body wash range is available at Woolworths and Coles supermarkets nationwide.
