As sustainability has become a more prevalent concern, schools nationwide have reinforced sustainable action by having no rubbish and no throw-away wrappers and snacks policies.
This encourages parents, carers, and children to be sustainably minded, reusing and recycling where possible.
Sistema's reusable forks, spoons, and knives have eliminated children's need for disposable ones, as over 40 billion are thrown away each year. It has also specifically designed its labels to stand out and catch the consumer's eye on the shelf while using minimal material possible and being easy to peel off and recycle. Its value pack offering has also shifted, with Sistema replacing its shrink wrap with recyclable cardboard wrap options.
Its cartons have no extra materials, meaning no plastic fillers can be found inside, and it also uses FSC-approved materials and recycled content in most of its RSC cartons.
Sistema consistently looks for ways to offer its customers more eco-friendly choices, using recycled material or making recyclable products, aiming to adhere to the industry's highest standards. As the drive for sustainability grows, Sistema anticipates that there will be more regulations and guidelines in 2024, and it will be front and centre, ready to meet these changes.
With an ethos underpinned by transparency and honesty, Sistema continues to develop its product range to suit students of all ages. For younger kids, Sistema Ribbon Lunch TO GO is perfect for taking lunch to school. It has an easy-opening hinged lid to ensure lids don't get lost, creating smaller bottles and lunch boxes that fit in kids' school bags that are easier to open.
For older kids, Sistema’s new Bento Create TO GO box is larger with moveable dividers to create a daily Bento lunch. And a range of colourful, stainless steel and plastic drink bottles designed for style-conscious teens.
