Can you have a plastic-free Christmas?

Can you have a plastic-free Christmas?

The winter holidays are all about indulgence, but that doesn’t necessarily have to mean waste.

While Christmas of times gone by has often meant a sea of plastic, today’s eco-conscious consumers are interested in making the festive season an all-round more sustainable experience, whether it’s with handmade decorations, solar-powered lights or creative options for reusable Christmas trees.

The good news is, a sustainable Christmas doesn’t mean having to give up everything that’s sparkly and shimmery, such as festive gift wrap and individually-wrapped chocolates. While both are a common source of single-use, unrecyclable plastic, there are alternative base materials, such as metallized paper, available to brands looking to uphold their sustainability commitments and reach out to environmentally-minded consumers. 

Metallized paper is a 100% recyclable, sustainably-sourced monomaterial that offers brands and their partners a wide range of design possibilities for the festive season and beyond. Get in touch with our team to find out more!
