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 Bamboo Rice Paddle replaces plastic and wooden rice paddles.
The Bamboo Rice Paddle is made from (you guessed it!) Bamboo. Bamboo is an extremely sustainable material as it is very fast growing and requires no pesticides and little water. Bamboo can be harvested around every five years, when it will then regenerate itself to be harvested again.
Plastic kitchen utensils are difficult to dispose of as they are made from hard plastic, which isn't generally recycled. Furthermore, the production of plastic creates a lot of pollution. Add that to the problem of plastic waste pollution and you can see why plastic is so unsustainable. The Bamboo Rice Paddle is far superior to its plastic counterparts on the sustainability front, but it's also superior to wooden rice paddles. Bamboo is naturally anti bacterial, stain resistant and more hard wearing than wood. Growing bamboo is more sustainable than wood too, as bamboo is far quicker to grow and requires no pesticides and little water.
The Bamboo Rice Paddle is completely packaging free!
When it's finally time to dispose of your Bamboo Rice Paddle, it is 100% home compostable, so just pop it on your compost pile.
