Plastic Free Wax Melts

Tripps - Somerset has a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. We strive to make conscious choices that minimise our impact on the planet. Here are some reasons why we choose not to use plastic for our wax melts:
Environmental impact: Plastic is a major contributor to pollution and poses a significant threat to ecosystems and wildlife. By avoiding plastic packaging, we aim to reduce plastic waste and promote a more sustainable future for our planet.
Health and safety: Some plastics contain harmful chemicals that can potentially leach into the wax melts and release toxins when melted. By opting for alternative packaging materials, such as glassine bags or eco-friendly wrappers, we prioritise the safety and well-being of our customers.
Aesthetics and presentation: We believe that eco-friendly packaging can enhance the overall visual appeal and presentation of our wax melts. Plastic-free packaging options can convey a sense of quality, craftsmanship, and care for both the product and the environment.
Meeting customer expectations: We understand that many consumers today actively seek out products that align with their values, including sustainable and plastic-free options. By choosing eco-friendly packaging, we aim to meet the preferences and expectations of our environmentally conscious customers.
Supporting a circular economy: Plastic packaging is often difficult to recycle or dispose of properly. By using alternative packaging materials, we promote a circular economy where materials can be reused, recycled, or biodegraded more effectively, reducing the overall waste generated.
By making a conscious choice to avoid plastic packaging, Tripps - Somerset strives to set a positive example within the industry and inspire others to prioritise sustainability. We believe that small changes can make a big difference, and our commitment to eco-friendly packaging reflects our dedication to a greener future.

What are glassine bags made from?
 
They are made from cellulose, a natural material that is derived from wood pulp. Cellulose is a renewable resource, and it is biodegradable and compostable.
 
Compostable glassine wrappers are a great alternative to traditional plastic wrappers. They are just as durable and they can be used to package a variety of products, including food, beverages, and cosmetics.
 
If you are looking for a more sustainable option for packaging, compostable glassine wrappers are a great choice. They are environmentally friendly and they can help to reduce your carbon footprint.
 
Here are some of the benefits of using compostable glassine wrappers:
Environmentally friendly: Compostable glassine wrappers are made from a renewable resource and they are biodegradable and compostable. This means that they will not end up in landfills or incinerators, where they will release harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Durable: Compostable glassine wrappers are just as durable as traditional plastic wrappers. They can be used to package a variety of products, including food, beverages, and cosmetics.
Resealable: Compostable glassine wrappers can be resealed, which helps to keep food fresh and prevents it from drying out.
Transparent: Compostable glassine wrappers are transparent, which allows you to see the product inside. 
If you are looking for a sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging option, compostable glassine wrappers are a great choice. They are durable, resealable, and transparent. They are also made from a renewable resource and they are biodegradable and compostable.
Here are some of the places where you can buy compostable glassine wrappers:
Online: There are a number of online retailers that sell compostable glassine wrappers.
Local businesses: Some local businesses may also sell compostable glassine wrappers.
Wholesale distributors: If you are looking to buy compostable glassine wrappers in bulk, you can contact a wholesale distributor.
