Where Plastic Doesn't Work and How to Replace it.
There are places where plastic is simply not a good/viable option. Around food and beverages, packaging, single-use, clothes are some of them.The EU directive is however encouraging mandatory percentages of recycled plastic but, it is also encouraging reducing and replacing plastic. So, what can we use? How do we replace it?
New biomaterials: there are hundreds of them being developed, some made with food and agricultural materials that are left over from production which is currently considered “waste”.
Use well established inert materials with established recycling systems like glass and aluminum. Changing business models: the way we deliver products and our relationships with customers like refills, subscriptions, and take-back schemes.
Recognizing what we can and can’t offer sustainably: consider that the product you are currently offering at mass, is not a product you can actually offer sustainably. Like monocultures depleting soils, mass productions of clothing, plastic prepackaged meals, and single use convenience items.
Do you know your plastic footprint?
Join us to calculate it and get many tips on how to eliminate and replace plastic.
I will share with you a list of 15 items that are relatively easy to swap.
“By removing these 15 items from your shopping cart you will decrease your plastic consumption by an average of 20 kg/year. By weight, that is the equivalent of 1,000 small plastic water bottles!!”
Let’s see how much plastic we can avoid together!
How much plastic does your business use/produce/sell?
Use a simple formula to calculate it together and set a strategy to slash those numbers.
Only 9% of plastic gets recycled.
“By replacing or removing just 1kg of plastic a day from your sales, you would be diverting the equivalent of 10,000 small plastic water bottles from landfill/year!!”
