“We are embarking on a mission to put an end to unwanted presents this holiday season by adding a range of conscious e-gift cards to our growing zero waste products portfolio.”

More than 100,000 tonnes of plastic packaging and 100 square km of wrapping paper are being thrown away each Christmas all around the world, and sadly, more than half of these contain unwanted presents that will be tossed into cupboards, never to be seen again.

It’s time for change, time to think about the planet, cut down on clutter and shift away from classical towards thoughtful gifts.

“Our e-gift cards are unique. They not only allow your friends and family to treat themselves to all the lovely things they actually really need; they go further, by opening a whole world of ethically made, reusable and long-lasting plastic-free choices. And on top of that, thanks to the carefully thought-through low impact nature of our online ecosystem, these Earth friendly e-gifts also give back to our planet, the home we all share.” 

How exactly?

As is often the case, the e-gift cards are available in all kinds of cute and classy designs, can be sent directly by email or printed at home for those who prefer to gift them in person, are valid for 12 months and may be used without restrictions on the entire zero waste online marketplace. One card gives access to over 600 all natural alternatives to conventional clothing, beauty products, kids accessories and household items. To mitigate pollution of all kinds, the online venue runs on renewable energy and supports exclusively zero waste oriented Europe based businesses. Each purchase is delivered in a fully compostable packaging and the co-founders also commit to collect a kilogram of street waste for every package shipped. All in all, ensuring a truly waste-free online shopping experience.

Ever since its launch back in March this year, the online marketplace, created by a young French-Slovak family, has been shaping the future of online shopping by saving 112kg of street waste from being eaten by birds or entering our waters, along with avoiding 580kg or 2150km of a car drive worth of manufacturing and transport related CO2, from being released into the atmosphere. All that simply by joining forces with like-minded businesses, tweaking a few details along the way and giving the power of choice to the consumer, having faith in that “Many small people, in small places, doing small things, can change the world.” – Eduardo Galeano
