Single-use plastics like Glad Wrap and other plastic wrap are still commonly used. Glad Wrap poses significant challenges due to its non-biodegradable nature and contribution to plastic pollution. However, many eco-friendly alternatives are available that are both practical and sustainable.
Why not try the following alternatives?
Wrapping your sandwiches, baked goods or snacks:
- Glass or stainless-steel containers
- Foil (recyclable when scrunched up into a golf ball sized ball)
- Beeswax wraps
- Reusable silicone bags
Storing food in the fridge:
- Glass or stainless-steel containers
- Silicone food covers
- Beeswax wraps
Moving and transportation:
- Compostable hand or machine pallet wrap from Great Wrap
Making the switch from Glad Wrap to these eco-friendly alternatives not only helps reduce plastic waste but also promotes sustainable living practices. So, let's wrap it up with a greener choice for our kitchen and our planet.
