Why we use it
Why not glass, we hear you ask. Simple. Because there’s a better choice. If you look at the whole journey a pack takes, and all the different ways it impacts the environment, it’s far from simple as just avoiding plastic. Glass is made from non-renewable materials, and even empty, it’s bulky and heavy to transport, while our light cardboard cartons travel flat-packed. Then when they’re full, a lorry can carry almost twice as many cartons as glass bottles in one go. Fewer trucks on the road, less fuel used, less CO2!

Plus, our plant-based cartons are mainly made from renewables – with nice shiny certificates to prove it. Such as the FSC certified wood that goes into our paperboard, Plantastic
