plastic bags

Hygienic and safe protective packaging

Our ConsumerBox is perfectly suited for this. How do we know that? It's simple. From our own experience. Because our company gives away self-sewn face masks to every employee worldwide. And so the question also arose for us as to which of our packaging would be the best way to present and hand over the face masks. Our choice quickly fell on our ConsumerBox. After all, as a manufacturer we know the advantages and properties of our products best.

Taking forward the commitment to eliminate single-use plastics, the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) has announced a ban on the entry of plastic waste into Delhi. All the manufacturers, retailers, general public, and shopkeepers have been asked not to keep any stock of single-use plastic by June 30, 2022. 

As per the pollution watchdog, non-woven bags less than 60 gram per sqm in thickness, sachets made of plastic, plastic bags less than 75 microns in thickness, plastic cutlery, plastic stirrers, sticks, and banners among other similar products have been banned in Delhi.

The Canadian branch of multinational retailer Walmart has pledged to remove single-use plastic shopping bags across its operations.

The retailer will discontinue the bags for both its in-store and online grocery pickup and delivery orders.

This move is expected to keep 750 million plastic bags out of circulation a year.

It comes after a successful pilot project Walmart Canada launched in August across ten stores, in which almost six million plastic bags were diverted.

Morrisons has announced it will replace the plastic packaging from its bananas with paper bands, in a move that makes it the first supermarket to remove plastic banana packaging from all its stores.

The announcement follows a successful 12-week trial that saw two million plastic bags removed from bananas. Morrisons said it will now complete the switch to paper bands at all its stores over the next six months and as a result it expects to eliminate 45 million single-use plastic bags each year, the equivalent of removing 180 tonnes of plastic from stores annually.
