A LIST OF JAW-DROPPINGLY GOOD PLASTIC-FREE PRESENTS THAT WILL LEAVE YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY AMAZED THIS CHRISTMAS

Ideas regalos ecologicos navidad

When the streets filled up with lights, you didn’t want to see it. When on your way to work, the shop windows were drowned in artificial snow, you looked away. But now, that Whatsapp is brimming with messages about get-togethers, work dinners and plans for the festive season, you have to come to terms with it. Christmas has arrived.

It is not easy for you to accept, as each time it gets harder as you think about the food waste, the unnecessary packaging, the compulsory consumption and the city centre packed with crowds of people on edge about getting the best deal. In addition, if we also include the idea of lost time queuing up in a store, with which you do not share values, to buy a product you don’t know how or where has been made, made of plastic and that you are not convinced will be useful, all this makes you want to run away very quickly.

WE HAVE GOOD NEWS: A DIFFERENT KIND OF CHRISTMAS IS POSSIBLE

We totally understand. Believe us. But, we do have good news for you. There is another way to get through the festive season. One that means consuming a lot less (potentially nothing!) and in a way that is responsible, giving experiences or useful and practical things made under fair work conditions with materials that respect the environment.

Therefore, we at Sinplastico have prepared a list of our favourite options so that, if you want to give a present, you can do so consciously.
