In an era where ecology and sustainability have become major concerns, many of you are looking for ways to reduce your environmental impact. One area where we can make significant changes is the tableware we use daily and/or during our leisure activities. Choosing eco-friendly tableware will help you reduce your petrol-based plastic consumption and preserve natural resources. In this article, we will explore some tips for switching to eco-friendly tableware and thus creating a sustainable home.
Use reusable products
Single-use petrol-based plastic is one of the main sources of plastic pollution in the world. It is essential to minimize its use as much as possible and replace it with a reusable product. During leisure activities, single-use petrol-based plastic tableware or even cardboard tableware (plastic-coated) are often used, but the good news is that they can be replaced!
As an alternative, TABLE & NATURE offers you natural, sustainable, highly resistant, practical, and lightweight tableware to go wherever you go. Our tableware has a very long lifespan and will last you for years. Using our tableware allows you to buy just one set, reusable as many times as you want.
Prioritize sustainable materials
Choosing natural tableware can sometimes be difficult with the different products and materials available on the market. A large portion of the tableware we use contains melamine, a petrol derivative, which releases micro-particles when the material is exposed to heat. We can also find this material in bamboo tableware (or other plant-based materials), which is therefore not as natural as it seems.
PLA (link to the article) is the 100% natural material that TABLE & NATURE uses to create its eco-friendly tableware. It is a biomaterial made from plants and minerals that is biodegradable in industrial settings. This material allows us to offer tableware made from non-polluting and readily available raw materials. Additionally, we do not use any harmful chemicals in making our tableware, which is 100% natural and safe for you and the planet.
Use reusable tableware
Reusable tableware is one of the most sustainable options. Choosing reusable plates, bowls, cups, and dishes lets you enjoy meals in a more eco-friendly way. TABLE & NATURE’s reusable tableware is practical and can be used anywhere. Designed for outdoor fun, our dishes adapt to you and go wherever your activities take you. Hiking, camping, lunch in the back garden, by the sea, on a picnic… TABLE & NATURE’s tableware is perfect!
In addition, we wanted to develop tableware that you can also use at home throughout the year. Our tableware is microwave and dishwasher safe to make your life easier.
Support local and sustainable businesses
Choosing TABLE & NATURE tableware means supporting a young French company that produces locally and responsibly. Making our tableware in France allows us to offer you products that meet health, quality, and worker-respect standards during production.
In addition, producing our tableware in France allows us to reduce CO2 emissions during the transportation of our products thanks to the proximity of our production facility.
In conclusion, choosing eco-friendly tableware is an effective way to create a sustainable home. By avoiding disposable plastic, favoring durable and recycled materials, looking for eco-certifications, opting for reusable tableware, and considering the overall environmental impact, you can make informed decisions for a more planet-friendly lifestyle. Don’t forget to support local and sustainable businesses in your efforts. Together, we can make a significant difference for a more sustainable future.
