Dove metal deodorant
Yes, it is recyclable. All the metals that compose it are recyclable, but a specific technology is necessary to separate the different materials that compose it, and also because the aerosols contain highly flammable propellant gas, so it must be opened under very safe conditions.
Aeorsol containers are recycled by companies with the necessary technology to disassemble them safely. The remains of propellant gases that may be contained in the containers are filtered and used as fuel, and the metals are separated for recycling.

Let’s start by clarifying who’s who in the world of underarm cosmetics. Antiperspirant uses aluminum salts – such as aluminum hydrochloride – to temporarily plug sweat glands and keep us from sweating. However, deodorant only keeps questionable odors at bay: it usually uses essential oils that attack the bacteria (antimicrobial agents) responsible for the annoying stench. Because sweat alone doesn’t smell: it’s the combination of bacteria and exudation that causes the bad odor. But it won’t stop you from getting your shirt wet.
The worst press goes to the aluminum in antiperspirants. As we already told in this other article about the aluminum in beer cans, the process of extracting bauxite and processing it to obtain this metal can be energetically very costly, as well as toxic to aquifers. If you do not want to give up antiperspirant, you have to live with aluminum, since this compound is present in practically all the salts used to stop perspiration. Solution: to avoid it, switch to deodorant.

– Two roll on deodorant containers: the one we will empty and the one we want to refill. I recommend that the container you are going to refill is not made of very hard plastic so that it is easier to extract and insert the ball.
There are also other containers that are easier to open, since they have an upper part that can be removed. In this case just insert the knife between the two pieces and do a little lever as you can see in the following photo.
