Sustainable products made from renewable resources
Plastic pollution is causing significant damage to our planet ,because it can take up to 400 years for plastic to degrade, so something has to be done. We know we need to change our ways but because alternatives to disposable plastics can be expensive and difficult to find, it’s not easy to make the switch.
It is our aim to offer something different and you’ll find our products can be comparable in cost to plastics, whilst being easy to order from our secure, mobile-friendly website for direct doorstep delivery. In addition, because we don’t set a minimum order value, you’ll be able to order in quantities which are realistic for you; whether that’s 100s or 1000s. We know we’re not going to change the world overnight but by providing cost-effective, convenient alternatives, it will make a big difference for generations to come.
Our product range includes everything you need to serve and package food for your takeaway, catering business coffee shop or cafe, or for entertaining at home. From compostable cold cups and cups for hot drinks, through to sandwich bags, disposable cutlery and food containers, our products are made from compostable or biodegradable plant-based plastic alternatives.
Compostable or biodegradable?
Our products are either compostable or biodegradable. Compostable products can be disposed of in your compost bin at home or by your local council with other food waste. Biodegradable products are collected by some local councils and recycled in special industrial composters; however this service isn’t available in all areas so please check with your local council first.
