We are entering a new paradigm with quality, health, sustainability, and our environment at its core. Beauty won’t save the world. However, 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 actively regrows yearly, reabsorbing vast amounts of CO2. A truly magical, renewable material that will never run out.
YES, IT’S RECYCLABLE
While we are working strong on our mission to use 100% recycled plastic, we always remind our #GelatoLovers that our jars are 100% recyclable. Thus, the Gelato community can recycle our jars and all other plastic in their home! Additionally, bear in mind that our recycled jars and other plastic you may have around the house can be transformed into fleeces, t-shirts, furniture, children’s toys and… you guessed it… Gelato jars!
YES, IT’S REUSABLE
VIRGIN PLASTIC CAN STICK IT
When we created our Sorbetto sticks, we knew the challenge would be to develop a fully sustainable wrapper that 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.
