Is sustainable tableware better?
Yes, sustainable tableware is definitely better - both for the environment and for your personal well-being. Unlike conventional tableware, which is often made from materials that are harmful to the environment and take a long time to decompose, sustainable tableware is made from environmentally friendly materials such as bamboo, wood, recycled plastic or even corn starch. These materials are biodegradable, recyclable and have a much lower impact on the environment. In addition, sustainable tableware is often more durable and resilient than conventional tableware, which means you have to buy new products less often and therefore produce less waste. Ultimately, choosing sustainable tableware helps to conserve natural resources and make a positive contribution to environmental protection - and that is definitely better for all of us.
What makes tableware sustainable, fair and ecological?
Sustainable, fair and ecological tableware is characterized by several features that distinguish it from conventional tableware:
- Environmentally friendly materials: Sustainable tableware is often made from natural or recycled materials that use fewer resources and have less environmental impact. These include materials such as bamboo, wood, recycled plastic or corn starch.
- Biodegradability: An important aspect of sustainable tableware is its biodegradability. It is designed so that it can be composted at the end of its life without leaving harmful residues in the environment.
- Recyclability: Sustainable tableware can often be recycled, either through traditional recycling processes or through special programs that take back and reuse the material.
- Ethical Manufacturing: Fair trade tableware is produced under conditions that ensure fair wages, safe working conditions and respect for workers' rights. This also means that no exploitative child labor or discrimination takes place.
- Durability and reusability: Sustainable tableware is often more durable and resilient than conventional disposable tableware. It can be used multiple times, which helps reduce waste and conserve resources.
- Minimal ecological footprint: The production and transportation of sustainable tableware are often optimized with the ecological footprint in mind to minimize environmental impact.
By choosing sustainable, fair and ecological tableware, you can help protect the environment, promote fair working conditions and support a sustainable lifestyle.

- Environmentally friendly use: A product also has an impact on the environment during use. We pay attention to whether the product can save resources such as energy, water or materials, and whether it is repairable, durable and/or refillable.
- Comprehensive recyclability: We check whether a product is recyclable, biodegradable or compostable. We also rate it positively if the manufacturer offers a return system for the product and returns it back into the cycle itself.
- Sustainable materials: Sustainability starts with the materials. We pay attention to whether the product is made of natural or recycled materials and whether it is petroleum- or plastic-free. We also check whether the materials are grown locally and organically.
