Zero waste: where to start?

Back to basics, back to reducing waste: here's why zero waste is becoming more and more popular. Perhaps you're wondering where to start? What basic gestures should you adopt, or which accessories are essential? We're here to help you make the transition to zero waste, with simple products such as soap pouches, make-up remover squares and fabric shopping bags.

Follow the zero waste guide!

Understanding zero waste

Zero waste doesn't necessarily mean producing zero waste overnight. Rather, it's about reducing the amount of waste we generate as much as possible, by adopting more sustainable consumption habits and promoting reuse and recycling. To achieve this, using sustainable accessories like those offered by PPMC is the perfect way to get started on the zero waste path.

Discover our guide to PPMC's eco-responsible selection.

The benefits of a zero-waste lifestyle

Adopting a zero-waste lifestyle has many advantages. Not only do you help preserve the environment, but you can also save money in the long term by reducing your expenditure on disposable products.

Where to start?

Whatever your motive, taking the plunge into zero waste is always a great idea! However, don't put too much pressure on yourself, as switching to a strict zero waste lifestyle doesn't happen overnight. It's best to start by setting goals. Each of these goals will be another step towards zero waste, and therefore another step towards preserving the planet.

Evaluate your waste: Take the time to examine your consumption habits and identify areas where you can reduce waste.
Replace disposable products: Start by replacing disposable products with sustainable alternatives.
Opt for sustainable solutions: Look for sustainable solutions for the products you use every day.
Reduce food waste: Plan your meals, buy in bulk whenever possible, and use reusable containers to store leftovers.

Start with what you think is easiest to implement: actions that don't put too much strain on your day-to-day life, such as setting up a compost heap, replacing your plastic toothbrush with a bamboo version, or always carrying a reusable bag with you to avoid using plastic bags for unexpected errands. The possibilities for starting your transition to zero waste are many and varied.

Replace your disposables with reusables

Start by replacing everyday items that can save you money and reduce waste. For beginners, we recommend changing a few habits in your kitchen and bathroom. Every little change counts in reducing your ecological footprint and helping to preserve our planet.

In my zero-waste kitchen!

In the kitchen, opt for sustainable alternatives such as cloth bulk bags to replace plastic bags, reusable airtight containers to store your food instead of plastic film, or stainless steel or glass water bottles to eliminate single-use plastic bottles. A versatile item we recommend is the toothbrush or cutlery pouch. Ultra-resistant and waterproof, it's ideal for carrying your cutlery at lunches or picnics.

Not forgetting its sidekick, the lunch bag for your lunches or snacks. Made from coated cotton fabric, it's waterproof, sponge-clean and keeps your food warm and cold.

Zero-waste accessories for a sustainable bathroom

In the bathroom, swap your disposable make-up remover cotton pads for organic cotton make-up remover squares or washable make-up remover gloves, replace plastic toothbrushes with eco-friendly toothbrushes from Lamazuna, opt for sustainable razors with replaceable blades instead of disposable razors, and don't forget the soap pouch to hold your new solid shampoos and/or solid beauty products in pretty waterproof pouches.

Here too, the toothbrush pouch is indispensable for protecting your bamboo toothbrush and toothpaste. It's perfect for when you're on the move, along with the soap pouches and make-up remover squares.

Take zero waste a step further

Buying in bulk is an important step in the fight against packaging overload. Opting to buy in bulk eliminates the need for plastic packaging and saves you money. In fact, by no longer paying for packaging, you can buy precisely the quantity you need. This approach is an effective way of reducing food waste while promoting local, sustainable trade.

To buy food without packaging, it's essential to use containers adapted to your needs, such as bee wraps, net bags for fruit and vegetables, cloth pouches, reusable silicone bags, tote bags, jars, airtight boxes and many others.

Wrap your gifts with furoshikis

Furoshikis are excellent zero-waste accessories that embody both Japanese tradition and modern sustainability. These versatile squares of fabric can be used in a multitude of ways: to wrap gifts, carry objects, or even as a reusable shopping bag. By replacing disposable packaging with furoshikis, you can significantly reduce your environmental impact while adding a touch of elegance and practicality to your everyday life. Made from durable, washable fabrics, furoshikis offer an ecological and aesthetic alternative for transporting your belongings, while helping to reduce plastic waste.

Discover the selection

Switching to a zero-waste lifestyle may seem like a challenge, but every little bit helps. By starting with simple changes and gradually incorporating zero-waste practices into your daily routine, you can make a positive difference.
