Sustainable practices in the kitchen can be simple. Here are some easy swaps.
Eco-Smart Kitchen

Awareness of the importance of sustainable cooking and living has grown rapidly in recent years. But where do you start if you’re new to the often overwhelming concept of sustainability? Making small changes consistently is a great starting ground, and one of the easiest starting points is the often over-packaged area of kitchen storage. We give you a rundown of practical ways to adapt to sustainability in the kitchen.

SWAP plastic storage containers for glass and stainless steel

Try Glass or food-grade stainless steel and tiffins. And don’t forget to recycle glass jars that foods come in.

Buy Kitchen shops, storage solution shops, and specialist food shops.

SWAP plastic wrap for beeswax coated cloth

This reusable solution is made from organic cotton muslin that has been coated in a thin layer of wax (some brands also include antibacterial tree resins); it can be used to wrap sandwiches, cover bowls and wrap most dry foods, even cheese. It will mold to whatever you are covering, simply by applying the heat of your hands and comes in a range of sizes.
