The threat of plastic packaging to the oceans Plastic packaging is widely used for a variety of products, including food, cosmetics and household items. Unfortunately, much of this packaging ends up in the oceans after use, where it accumulates and forms large islands of litter. Marine animals can become entangled in this plastic waste or accidentally ingest it, which can lead to serious injury or even death. In addition, plastic decomposes very slowly, creating tiny microplastic particles that pass through the food chain and eventually reach humans.

Why cardboard and paper are the better alternativeOh Sheet! has recognized that plastic packaging is a huge burden on the environment and has therefore opted for a sustainable alternative. Their toilet paper products are packaged in cardboard and paper packaging that is biodegradable and recyclable. Compared to plastic, these materials are more environmentally friendly and have a significantly lower impact on the oceans and nature in general.

Biodegradable packaging Cardboard and paper are natural materials that can easily decompose over time. When Oh Sheet! packaging ends up in the trash or is accidentally released into the environment, it begins a biodegradation process. This reduces the risk of them polluting the marine environment or endangering animal life. Biodegradable packaging helps to reduce the problem of ocean plastic pollution.
-
Recyclable packaging Cardboard and paper are also highly recyclable materials. By returning them to the recycling loop, they can be used to manufacture new products. The use of recycled cardboard and paper helps to reduce the consumption of resources and the environmental impact associated with the production of new materials.
