Sustainability is not just a trend but a necessity that is becoming increasingly important in today’s world. As a responsible company, Powermints is committed to playing its part in creating a livable future for generations to come. But what does sustainability really mean at Powermints?
The Balance Between Ecology, Society, and Economy
Sustainability is a complex task that takes into account economic, ecological, and social aspects. At Powermints, it means designing our products to be not only delicious but also environmentally friendly. Our goal is to strike a balance that serves both the environment and the needs of our customers.
Reducing Plastic Packaging: A Significant Step
Over the past two years, Powermints has made great strides in reducing plastic packaging. We have successfully cut down our plastic consumption by a full 65%. This achievement was made possible by switching to cardboard made from recycled paper or using recyclable plastic for our packaging.
But we won’t stop there. Our goal is to continue reducing plastic usage to minimize our environmental impact in a sustainable way.
Tinplate Cans: Sustainable Packaging for a Better World
Another cornerstone of our sustainability strategy is the use of tinplate cans. 80% of our production is now packaged in these recyclable metal containers. Tinplate is infinitely recyclable and has an impressive recycling rate of 97% in Germany. By using this material, we actively help reduce waste and conserve valuable resources.
At Powermints, sustainability is more than just a buzzword. It is our commitment to preserving the planet for future generations. In our next blog, you’ll learn how Powermints is partnering with Tree Nation to further contribute to environmental conservation.
