Here at Beyond Bamboo we are all about taking the guess work out of going green. By carefully choosing the products you buy into your home you can help to not only create a healthy and sustainable environment in your own space, but also help to rejuvenate and protect the planet.
Your bathroom is arguably the most wasteful room in your house and so if you're just starting out on your sustainable journey, it's a great place to start! Here are four steps to making more sustainable product choices for your bathroom.
REFILLABLES
For more sustainable options in your bathroom opt for refillables that come in compostable packaging. Choose glass or metal containers that last!
This prolongs the use of materials, whilst minimising the new materials needed and lowering transport costs and C02 emissions.
GO PLASTIC FREE
Less than a third of all plastic in the UK is recycled and every day approximately 8 million pieces of plastic pollution find their way into our oceans. Your bathroom is a great place to cut down your single-use plastics!
CHOOSE SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
Bamboo is a great sustainable choice. You can get tooth brushes, razors, cotton buds, wash cloths, toilet roll, soap dishes, hair and makeup brushes - the list is endless! Items are also compostable once you've finished with them - so a zero waste item!
REUSABLES
Think anything that can be washed and used time and time again. This helps us cut down on single-use items such as wet wipes which often contain micro-plastics, plastic packaging and chemical toxins and end up in the bin and then landfill (or our oceans). Wash cloths and reusable make-up remover pads reusable are a great place to start!
