Plastic Free July 2022

Plastic Free July 2022 is here! We have been supporting Plastic Free July since 2013 and we are delighted to see it gaining popularity year on year and the message spreading. The big change we have seen over the years is the change in the products around us. We have been pioneering plastic free alternatives and encouraging less wasteful reusables for many years but it certainly has started to creep into more mainstream products.
The plastic bag charge came in 2015 where plastic supermarket bags came with a 5p charge which saw a massive drop in their use. Since 2015 the sales of single use plastic bags have dropped by more than 95%. 2018 finally saw the ban on the sale of products containing plastic microbeads. This was mainly shower gels and face scrubs, but even more bizarrely some toothpastes, yuk! In 2020 the ban on other single use plastics came into action, covering plastic straws, drink stirrers and cotton buds to end-users.
Plastic waste is still however a big problem and despite people trying to avoid it, sometimes it just seems unavoidable, try going to the supermarket and getting all of your fruit and veg without plastic. Ideally it should not be up to the consumer to have to look around for plastic free or minimal options, it should just be the norm!
We have been using totally plastic free packaging for many years, this despite it being far more expensive than the cheaper plastic alternatives (which is why you still see other online retailers using plastic). Again with collective effort this cost could come down as more adopt it until it is on a par with or cheaper than plastic packing.
