We say no
To Plastic.

Do you know what's in your cleaning and laundry detergents? In addition to the plastic packaging, they often also contain microplastics and harmful ingredients. We'll show you how to do it differently.

Thanks to glass bottles and cleaning tabs and powders, you can even do without single-use plastic when cleaning.

You can easily make many cleaning products yourself with just a few ingredients that you often already have at home anyway. Vinegar, baking soda, baking powder and citric acid are real all-rounders.

Washing synthetic fibers creates microplastics. It is best to avoid these fibers and instead rely on sustainable natural fibers.

That's often the motto when we're on the road and before we know it, we're turning to plastic products.

But did you know that every German uses an average of 200 single-use plastic bottles a year? Put together, you could circle the world 135 times with these bottles in Germany alone. (Source: German Environmental Aid).

There are more than 6,140 refill stations and drinking fountains throughout Germany where you can fill up tap water free of charge. Best of all, of course, in your favorite plastic-free drinking bottle.

Whether camping, picnicking or at work - you can take your food with you in reusable lunch boxes to reduce waste. Many restaurants and bakeries will also fill your food into containers you have brought with you.

We'll show you how to do it differently.

Here you can fill many products yourself in containers you have brought with you and thus save a lot of packaging waste. Lunch boxes, bags and mason jars, which you probably already have at home, are suitable.

But don't worry if you don't have a zero-waste store near you, there are also many ways to save plastic in the supermarket. Bring your own cotton bags for loose fruit and vegetables, and opt for products in reusable, glass or paper packaging.

It's even worth taking a closer look online, since a lot of waste can quickly arise during shipping due to filling material and outer packaging. There are now many shops that do not only use plastic in their products, but also in shipping or reduce it.

We also try to be as resource-efficient as possible in shipping.

• Shipping boxes are recyclable and are already made from recycled material
• Most of our products are resource-saving and plastic-free with just a paper banderole or a glassine bag
• We optimize your shipping packaging to send as little air as possible. For small orders, for example, we use envelopes made from FSC-certified paper to save space and weight in shipping

But if we take a closer look around, we quickly realize that we are already confronted with a lot of plastic here - from toothbrushes to skin care products to bath mats.

We show them how to do it differently.

Solid products for showering are very economical and they also save a lot of plastic waste. In cosmetics, however, microplastics and synthetic polymers (so-called liquid plastics) are also used, for example as peelings or opacifiers.

Apps like Codecheck help them to identify (micro)plastic. Junglück, for example, completely dispenses with these substances.

There are solid products not only for the shower, but also for your dental care. With toothpaste tablets you also save a lot of plastic waste, which is already caused by the packaging. You can use a toothbrush made of wood or bamboo instead of plastic.

Razor blades or disposable razors quickly create plastic waste. Do you already know safety razors? They do completely without plastic. High-quality models can accompany you for a lifetime. With a bit of practice, you will not only have smooth skin, you will also shave sustainably and cheaply in the long run
