Why Bamboo, well it’s the worlds fastest growing plant but it’s also silky soft so while you are choosing a more eco product you don’t compromise on quality. We offer a variety of B2B system products from Bamboo Dispensers, Jumbo Rolls, Mini Jumbo, Handtowels to Anti Bacterial wipes and straws.
Simply put the 3 things we can help with is cut carbon, save trees and reduce plastic.
Reducing carbon emissions is a key goal for countries as it’s one of the biggest contributors to climate change. By using bamboo, we produce 65% less emissions than conventional tissue. Any carbon we do emit through our process of creating and shipping our products is then offset via the World Land Trust.
This basically means that anything we put out, we put back in again via donations which help protect and develop the rainforest, otherwise known as one of the ‘lungs of the Earth’ because of its oxygen-rich ecosystem.
To date, we’ve saved 32,500 tons of carbon. By working with our partners and clients like you, by 2025 we’re aiming to save 330,000 tons.
Forests and trees help to stores carbon by capturing it from the atmosphere using photosynthesis. The carbon is absorbed and released by the trees as oxygen – trees absorb around a third of all carbon emissions worldwide but when you cut down a tree all this carbon that is stored is lost.
Bamboo is a grass so it regrows from the root so when its cut, the roots are still alive meaning it keeps it sequestered carbon. As a grass there is no soil erosion and it doesn’t need pesticides and fertilisers to grow.
To date, we’ve saved 250,000 trees. By 2025, we aim to have saved 3.2 million.
The average case of toilet tissue is wrapped in 50 grams of plastic. Our tissue can handtowels have no plastic packing. 92% of all plastic is not recycled its mainly incinerated back into our atmosphere.
By reducing our collective plastic use, we can have a direct, positive effect on lowering carbon emissions and plastic pollution.
