“Caring for the Environment” seems to be the catchcry of the 2010’s. Everyone wants to be in on it, wants to do their bit – after all, we’ve only got one world. But somewhere along the line the real message is being lost.
The real message – sustainability – is more than just recycling. Sustainability is about choosing products that are made from things that can be easily regenerated or recycled, and choosing products that are made to last. Sometimes something built to last costs a little more – but it’ll save you in the long run because you’ll replace it less frequently - so you use LESS of them.
It makes financial sense – use less, spend less, get more Value.
Plastics Australia is all about sustainability and value. We choose items that have already been recycled or are very easily recyclable, then set about making products that last at prices that make it easy for you to choose the sustainable options, giving you value for your money.
Take our standard issue insert binder for example – we call it Doubleduty ®, because it works twice as hard as the industry standard. We start with recycled cardboard AND recycled white PVC. Our materials are commercial grade – that means they’re more durable and our inside pockets are generously deep – ½ the binder high! AND, when the binder has reached the end of it’s very long useful life – we’re happy to take it back, breakdown the components and recycle them.
