Single-Use Plastics Ban Alternatives

With many single-use items (including plastic plates, cutlery, cups, stirrers, straws and polystyrene takeout containers) now banned as the Scottish, Welsh and English Government take further steps to address the climate crisis, you may well be asking: what can I use instead? Below you'll find our top compostable swaps including wooden cutlery, paper straws, plant-based take away boxes, trays and stirrers.  

Please refer to our Quick-Look Guide for what's banned where and when.
