Environmental Details
We know how difficult it can be to tell how much of an impact what you are buying has on the environment, and what effect switching to a more sustainable product has, so we have found out and compiled all of this information for you below.
The Wooden Kitchen Tongs from ecoLiving replace tongs that are made from plastic.
The Kitchen Tongs are made in Europe from 100% sustainably sourced beechwood.
Any kitchen utensils that have plastic components are difficult or impossible to recycle when they reach the end of their usable life. This poses a problem as the plastic inevitably ends up in landfill, where it will slowly degrade over hundreds of years and release micro plastics that make their way into the environment. By using kitchen utensils that are made using compostable and recyclable materials such as wood and steel, you can ensure that when your utensil has seen better days, it can be disposed of in a sustainable way.
The Wooden Kitchen Tongs are 100% packaging free.
The Kitchen Tongs are well built and should last a long time, however, if you do need to dispose of them, they are fully compostable.
