Patch Autumn Promo

Today, we received a full pallet of Patch bamboo plasters to go out to our lovely customers for free – but only to be used as samples! More about our Patch Autumn Promo below.

Accepting pallets wrapped in plastic

Of course, as a distributor for zero waste products, we try to ask all our suppliers to avoid (outer) plastic packaging. However, it seems that even the most forward-thinking suppliers still use plastic when sending out pallets.

I guess, there is a fine balance between sending out plenty of single boxes vs one pallet. The carbon footprint for a pallet is certainly lower than x amounts of single boxes. In our experience, even when ordered together, single boxes of one order don’t necessarily are delivered together.

However, the plastic around the pallet goes against the carbon footprint produced by sending out single boxes. Hopefully, there will be a solution on sending pallets without outer plastic packaging in the near future.

Above all, we always have tons of local people in the community who take unused pallets off us. Plenty end up being reused for fancy garden projects.

But let’s talk about the products we received today.
