Vision

At Z-ECO Straw our vision is to minimise the use of single-use plastics and enlighten consumers about the benefits of eco-friendly products.

By opting for Z-ECO Straw, you actively participate in a global movement to reduce single-use plastics and safeguard our planet for generations to come.

Amidst the plethora of eco-brands, it’s imperative to stay alert to misleading marketing tactics, often termed greenwashing.

Greenwashing can be a very effective marketing strategy. It is used to create the illusion that a company has taken the environment into consideration when creating their products or services.

Navigating the complex language surrounding eco-friendly has taught us that clarity is key. It’s essential for consumers to grasp the importance of making informed decisions that contribute to a sustainable future, minimise the carbon footprint of our planet, and preserve the Earth for generations to come.

The terms biodegradable and compostable are everywhere, but they are often used interchangeably, incorrectly, or misleading – adding a layer of uncertainty for anyone trying to shop sustainably.

The PLA and PPA straws currently in the market branded as biodegradable and compostable straws, do however still contain microplastics and therefor are not 100% biodegradable and home compostable.

PLA and PPA straws still need specific industrial facilities to degrade. These industrial methods used to degrade materials is harmful to the environment and defeats the purpose of using the product in the first place.

Z-ECO Straws decompose naturally as they are made of natural plant fibers, bio-based polymers (no plastic) and have a low environmental impact. Z-ECO Straws are therefor 100% biodegradable and home compostable.

Keeping all the new found information in mind, by using Z-ECO Straw you will have peace of mind that you are indeed 100% eco-friendly and saving the planet straw by straw.
