Plastic Ain’t All That Fantastic

Sure, plastic can be versatile, sturdy and super convenient, but it has created big problems for the environment. Everyone knows by now that single-use plastic bags, water bottles, and takeaway cups and containers make up the majority of the debris polluting our waterways and oceans.

That’s not all folks!

Not only does plastic waste endanger aquatic wildlife, make our drinking water unsafe and sullies the waters where we swim, it’s filling up landfills at a rapid rate, which means we either reduce our use of plastics or we create more landfills.

But, as was recently reported in The Age, creating more landfills is not an option. Locals councils across Melbourne are “waging a war on plastic” by encouraging food and beverage traders to phase-out single-use plastic items and offer eco-friendly alternatives.

It’s easy being green …

Forget about what Muppet star Kermit the Frog used to sing, it’s actually really easy being green! Because the most effective way to reduce plastic waste is to not create it in the first place, Present Company Included offers you much better alternatives—better for you and the environment.

 

Reusable Bamboo Coffee Cups
Encourage both staff and clients to go green with these eco-inspired reusable coffee cups. These bamboo coffee cups have a secure push-on silicone lid and a wide heat resistant silicone band. The lid and band can be mixed and matched with up to five different colour combinations for branding. Best of all, every time you reuse this coffee cup is the equivalent of not sending a non-biodegradable cup to landfill.
 

Vacuum Food Flask

The perfect sister-act to the reusable coffee cup is this vacuum-insulated stainless steel food flask. It’s ideal for bringing your own hot or cold lunches and snacks to work, or even when you’re on the go. But it’s even better for taking it along to your regular eatery and filling it with your favourite foods. It saves you the time and worry of having to ditch another plastic takeaway container.

Glass Drink Bottles

Plastic water bottles threaten our well-being in so many ways. They take eons to decompose and leach chemicals into the earth when in landfill, into our water when washed, and release toxins into the air when incinerated. Send a clear message with a glass bottle — that you care about the environment and everyone in it! Glass is a natural choice for a clean, pure taste and it offers a safe and eco-friendly alternative.
 

Karma Reusable Food Wrap

Could you ever imagine an alternative to cling wrap? We all need to help reduce or eliminate single-use plastic products and the Karma food wrap has to be one of the best ways of doing just that. It is an eco-friendly reusable food storage wrap designed to protect sandwiches, buns, rolls, bagels and biscuits. It eliminates the need for single use plastic food wrap and ensures lunch boxes are waste free.


Present Company Included can help you make an impact in the war against plastic waste and pollution. It’s a war we can win together simply because the environment belongs to all of us.
