Supporting Eco Champions
We consider all our customers 'eco champions' for making that all important switch to eco friendly packaging and for considering the environment in their purchasing decisions. They care about the environment and want to make a difference. The smallest change in behaviour, whether moving away from polystyrene or reducing the amount of plastic straws used in an establishment, these are all changes many businesses are already implementing that can make a real difference. Following the increasing environmental concerns which are high on the Government's agenda, and the good work our customers and many others are doing in support of the environment, we have launched #EcoChampion to give those people and businesses the recognition they deserve.
Are you an eco champion?
You may drive an electric vehicle, or generate your own electricity at home. You may have switched from using plastic cups to compostable cups, or reduced the amount of packaging used in your business. Or you may be doing something completely different that other people and businesses could learn from and implement themselves to make a difference. If you consider yourself an #EcoChampion we want to hear from you. Join the conversation using the hashtag #EcoChampion or email us your story to sales@biopac.co.uk. We will share your story with our customers and followers on social media and in our newsletters to shout about the great work you're doing. Together, we can make a difference.
If you'd like to follow in the footsteps of some of the Eco Champions listed below, why not take a look at our wide range of eco friendly catering disposables here and make the switch today.
