Did you know, March 18th is Global Recycling Day?
We have a few products at Flora & Fauna made from recycled paper, recycled plastic, and even recycled wine bottles. These products are truly having a second life and helping close the loop on waste.
Mojo Candles
Apart from smelling amazing, these candles are made from reclaimed wine and beer bottles, repurposing them into something truly beautiful and unique.
These candles are hand-poured in Sydney, and they partner with local restaurants, bars and pubs to collect their old wine and beers bottles, which means every candle is different!
Green + Kind Reusable Produce Bags
We take our produce bags everywhere because you never know when you might need to pop into the shops! These reusable produce bags are super sturdy and are a great alternative to the single-use plastic bags that you find at most supermarkets. They're made from RPET, recycled plastic mesh.
Pro tip— make a rule that if you don't have your reusable bags on you, only buy what you can carry so you don't have to use a single-use plastic bag or worse— buy another bag to add to your large collection!
Earth Greetings Cards
Earth Greetings make beautiful greeting cards for all occasions. The best part? They are made from 100% post-consumer waste paper, printed with vegetable-based ink and 100% accredited carbon neutral.
Matt & Nat Purity Collection
Did you know the new Purity Collection from Matt & Nat is made entirely from recycled materials! This is a huge step in the right direction from this gorgeous Canadian brand.
The exterior is made from 100% fully recycled materials such as PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) derived from recycled resin from windshield glass.
The interior/lining is made from 100% recycled nylon and100% recycled bottles. Approximately 21 plastic bottles are recycled for every bag they produce. Pretty neat!
Urban Composter
Not only does the Urban Composter help you create less waste and divert organic materials from landfill, but it's also made from recycled plastic right here in Australia!
Their compost accelerator also comes in recycled plastic bottles made from post-consumer plastic waste.
If You Care Extra Strong Recycled Aluminium Foil
Sometimes you can't avoid aluminium foil in the kitchen, so we aim to provide the best and most sustainable option for you. If You Care Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil is made from 100% recycled aluminium. While traditional foil manufacturing is a power-intensive process, If You Care uses 95% less energy to produce theirs as there is no need to mine new materials, the production creates less waste, while reusing a precious resource. Pro-tip — you can recycle aluminium foil kerbside if you save up a big ball and scrunch it all together!
Here at F&F we always look for the most sustainable products and the best packaging so we have lots of other brands, not mentioned in this blog that also come in compostable, biodegradable, plantable and recyclable packaging.
