Get ready for a plastic-free 2023
Tips to use less plastic in everyday life to reduce plastic use.
Plastic use is increasing all the time. This creates huge mountains of disposable plastic that damage nature. Retulp wants to reduce the amount of disposable plastic and you can easily help! The tips below will get you ready for a plastic-free 2023.
1. Buy a reusable water bottle
Single-use plastic bottles and other beverage containers are among the most common items found at beach cleanups. Fortunately, it is easy to eliminate disposable packaging from your daily life.
Try to start carrying one reusable drinking bottle in your bag everywhere you go in 2023. You can refill your bottle at work, at school or you can use an app to find out where you can refill it for free. Retulp has a large selection of drinking bottles and thermos suitable for everyone. For example, choose the Tumbler Thermos Cup. This thermos is suitable for both hot and cold drinks and keeps up to 6 hours hot and up to 8 hours cold. This way, you can take your favorite drink with you wherever you go!
2. Bring your own bag
If you don't already have a reusable bag, now is the time to purchase one. So that on your next visit to one store, you will no longer need a (plastic) bag. A simple but effective solution! If many people do this, a whole lot of plastic bags will be saved. Moreover, a reusable bag is often much more practical and stylish than a disposable bag.
For example, choose the Shopper cooler bag, made of durable material. This spacious shopper also keeps your groceries nice and cool. This bag is also perfect for a day at the beach, for example. This way you will not only be sustainable, but also well prepared.
3. Bring your own coffee mug
Of course, there is nothing nicer than a nice cup of coffee on the go. This, too, can be done in a sustainable way. Instead of getting take-out coffee when you are somewhere, you can already make your tea or coffee at home and take it with you. This way you have your own coffee cup with you everywhere you go, which saves a lot of disposable cups per person.
If you still prefer to get your favorite coffee on the go, don't forget to bring a reusable coffee cup. You can then have these filled at the store. For example, choose the Travel Mug, the ideal travel mug. This to-go coffee mug keeps hot for up to 15 minutes and fits under any coffee maker. So with a reusable coffee mug, you reduce plastic use very easily!
4. Choose sustainable lunch packaging
Many people use plastic bags to carry their lunch. By replacing plastic bags with robust products that are not only practical but also stylish, we are making disposable plastic obsolete. In fact, one lunchbox replaces hundreds of plastic bags. Small effort right? We agree.
Here you can choose a reusable lunch box, lunch bag or even a thermos lunch pod. A practical and sustainable way to take your lunch with you!
5. Be aware of plastic
The use of plastic is integrated into many everyday products. Many people don't realize how much plastic they use. By keeping track of which plastic products you use most often, you will better understand where you need to make changes.
Consider online purchases, for example. When you buy something online, it is often in plastic packaging. Try is to look for eco-friendly online stores that package their products in recyclable materials. You can also reduce plastic waste when you store by placing larger orders with the same retailer, rather than ordering individual items from different stores. This way, your items will be packaged together.
