JAX is all about conservation and helping our customers find more sustainable products. By eliminating single-use plastics and choosing reusable alternatives for a zero-waste lunch, we can significantly reduce our environmental footprint. Here are 6 tips you can implement this school year to help make a difference!
1. Choose a Freezable Lunch Box: PackIt Freezable Classic Lunch Box
One of the keys to packing a zero-waste lunch is to invest in a high-quality, reusable lunch box. This means no more buying those brown bags or lunch boxes that fall apart halfway through the school year! The PackIt Freezable Classic Lunch Box is one of our favorite choices. One unique feature about this lunch box is its built-in gel-lined walls that can be frozen overnight, which means you don’t need an ice pack!
2. Ditch the Plastic Bags: ProKeeper Reusable Silicone Bags
Instead of using a new plastic bag with each lunch packed, consider using reusable silicone bags like the ProKeeper Reusable Silicone Bag Set. These bags are versatile, easy to clean, and a sustainable alternative to single-use plastic bags. The airtight seal ensures that your food will stay fresh.
3. Swap Foil for Beeswax Wraps: Ecologie Reusable Beeswax Sandwich Wraps
Say goodbye to plastic wrap or aluminum foil and switch to reusable beeswax wraps. The Ecologie Reusable Beeswax Sandwich Wraps are an eco-friendly and biodegradable alternative that keeps your sandwiches and snacks securely wrapped. These wraps are made from organic cotton infused with beeswax, resin, and jojoba oil, creating a flexible and reusable covering for your food items. They can be washed and used again, making them an ideal choice for your zero-waste lunch packing.
4. Bring a Reusable Water Bottle: Stay Hydrated with Hydro Flask Water Bottles
Staying hydrated throughout the day is essential, but it's crucial to do so without relying on single-use plastic water bottles. Invest in a reusable water bottle, like the Hydro Flask Wide Mouth Water Bottle. Hydro Flask water bottles are made from stainless steel, which is a durable and non-toxic material. By choosing stainless steel over plastic, you are reducing your environmental footprint. With lots of styles to choose from, Hydro Flask is style and keeps your drinks cold or hot for hours, ready for a long day spent in classes at school!
5. Plan Ahead To Reduce Food Waste
Packing a zero-waste lunch also involves intentional planning and packing. Prepare your lunches in advance and use leftovers to avoid food waste. By planning your meals, you can make sure you only pack what you need, reducing the chances of throwing away uneaten food.
Transitioning to zero-waste lunches is a small yet meaningful step towards a more sustainable lifestyle. By investing in reusable products like the PackIt Freezable Classic Lunch Box, ProKeeper Reusable Silicone Bag Set, Ecologie Reusable Beeswax Sandwich Wraps, and Hydro Flask Water Bottles you can significantly reduce single-use plastic waste. By planning ahead and being mindful of our choices, we can all make a positive impact on the environment, one lunch at a time. JAX is here to help you have a healthy, zero-waste school year!
