I’m not a virgin

Beauty won’t save the world. Reducing plastic production will. That’s why we have decided to go beyond just beauty and design a jar that is not only beautiful, but ceases to use virgin plastic.

Our jars are now made from 100% recycled plastic while our lids are made from 100% plant-based sugarcane plastic. Why sugarcane, you may ask? Sugarcane is one of the most responsible sources of plastic. It doesn’t harm the planet, gets all its necessary resources to grow from natural rainfall, and it actively regrows every year reabsorbing vasts amounts of CO2. A truly magical, renewable material that will never run out.

While we’re working strong on our mission to use 100% recycled plastic, we always remind our #GelatoLovers that our jars are 100% recyclable and encourage the Gelato community to not only recycle our jars, but also all other plastic in their home. Our recycled jars and other plastic you have around the house can then be made into fleeces, t-shirts, furniture, children’s toys and… you guessed it… Gelato jars!

Our jars are beautiful and we love to show them off! We know you do too! Our Gelato jars, once wiped clean, can be used as storage for dry goods in the kitchen, your dog’s treats, as a lunch box or even as a planter for your basilico! Get creative and don’t forget to tag us so we can see your amazing ways of reusing Remeo jars.

When we created our Sorbetto sticks, we knew the challenge would be to develop a wrapper that was fully sustainable but could perfectly protect our precious Sorbetto sticks – without using any plastic. Our sticks are wrapped in a biodegradable wax-coated paper wrapping of our own creation, and we are very proud to be the only brand in the UK to do so. This is not a fruit lolly. It’s a sorbetto stick – and it’s 100% plastic-free.
