To contribute to a more conscious and environmentally friendly lifestyle, we have to know ambassadors of buying organic products in bulk using returnable packaging.
Buy in bulk means buying unpackaged products, in large quantities, and taking them home in our own packaging:
- Waste reduction: by buying in bulk we avoid generating unnecessary packaging waste, thus contributing to reducing the amount of waste we generate and reducing our ecological footprint.
- Economic savings: Buy the amount you used and you will not waste product.
- Greater freshness: bulk products are usually fresher, as they have not been stored for so long.
- Varieat of products: in bulk stores you can find many different products, some of which are not available in other establishments.
Why use returnable packaging?
Another way to reduce the amount of waste we generate is through the use of returnable packaging. These are containers that can be reused several times, instead of being thrown away after their first use. Some of the advantages of using returnable packaging are:
- Waste reduction: by reusing containers instead of throwing them away after their first use, the amount of waste we generate is reduced.
- Economic savings: in the long term, the use of returnable packaging is cheaper than buying desechable packaging over and over again.
- Higher quality: some products are better preserved in glass or metal containers than in desechable plastic containers, so their use can contribute to maintaining the quality of food.
- Increased food safety: Some studies have shown that the use of glass or metal containers to store food can reduce exposure to certain chemicals found in some plastic containers.
