🛍️ Can you believe it’s been 10 years since the hugely successful plastic bag levy was introduced to the UK high street? Since then, the use of plastic bags in stores has fallen by an astonishing 98%. Despite the roll out of similar legislation across Europe, shopping habits have changed and online fashion retail has fallen behind. Our latest research uncovers the scale of plastic used in online clothing orders, and sheds light on the positive impact that switching to fibre-based alternatives could have on the fashion industry, its consumers, and the planet. ♻️ Discover how we’re redefining packaging and making fibre fashionable 👉 https://ow.ly/RGC650Vs8rx

♻️ 🛍️ Did you know? In the UK, 941 million unnecessary plastic bags were used for online clothing orders last year alone. As shoppers continue to migrate online, this number is expected to grow by 40% between now and 2030 – meaning that nearly 7 billion plastic bags could be arriving on UK doorsteps over the next five years. With only 9% of these bags currently being reused or recycled, it's estimated that by 2030, over a billion plastic bags will end up in landfill or burned every year in the UK. As the online clothing market soars, switching to easily-recyclable, fibre-based alternatives has never been more important. Discover how we’re making fibre fashionable. https://ow.ly/2wCH50Vs8cZ

Would you prefer your online clothing order to be delivered in easily recyclable, fibre-based packaging, rather than plastic?
