Bring your own container.

Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose and Recycle are the 5 common Rs that we advocate in applying when trying to reduce waste. So feel free to B.Y.O.C. (Bring Your Own Containers) like a mason jar, jam jar, ice cream tub or lunchbox for any refills. In this way, you only buy the amount that you need without creating unnecessary waste, so you don’t end up wasting food that would otherwise be forgotten and thrown away.

Refill shops are taking over the sustainable shopping sector and we’re excited to be right there at the heart of it. See where we’ll be popping up this month.

Bring your own containers to our stall to refill on staples from pasta to dried fruits to cleaning products. Have a look at what we offer.

Our online shop currently offers most of our non-perishable items, like bamboo toothbrushes, beauty products and shampoo bars. Browse our online shop.

Choose refill, not landfill

In the UK, supermarkets alone produce ~1 million tons of plastic every year, this accounts for a quarter of all plastic waste in the country. This is a huge problem that is not sustainable. This is the reason why I think more people should care about reducing waste and helping the environment. Ultimately, a WASTED planet affects everyone’s health and it will only get worse if we don’t step up and do something about it.

Plastic has only been widely used in the last 50 years and yet its ubiquitous and mass use in different fields continue to generate a colossal amount of waste that is choking our planet. As with any good invention and discovery, responsible use is key. While the durable material has been valuable for many uses and functions, the culture of single-use and disposal of plastic is one of the major issues that need to be urgently addressed today.

 

Live well,
Live lightly.

We believe a small change from individuals can make a difference. Simple action and a small shift in our shopping habits, whether that be your food or washing-up liquid refilled from bulk, it can and will make a big difference when efforts are pulled together.

Buying good quality ingredients to cook wholesome food is key to a healthier diet and lifestyle. We believe that taking care of yourself today and leaving a cleaner planet for the future is a worthwhile investment in yourself, people you love and future generations.

Help us be the difference by shopping with Bambú Living Sustainably.

We sell lots of lovely things.
