The threat to the oceans from plastic packaging Plastic packaging is widespread and used for a variety of products, including food, cosmetics, and household items. Unfortunately, many of these packages end up in the oceans after use, where they accumulate and form large amounts of garbage islands. Marine animals can become entangled in this plastic waste or accidentally swallow it, leading to serious injuries or even death. Furthermore, plastic decomposes very slowly, creating tiny microplastic particles that penetrate the food chain and ultimately reach humans as well.

Why cardboard and paper are the better alternative Oh Sheet! has recognized that plastic packaging poses 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 are 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 decompose easily over time. When Oh Sheet! packaging ends up in waste or accidentally enters the environment, they begin a biological degradation process. This reduces the risk of polluting the marine environment or endangering wildlife. Biodegradable packaging helps to reduce the problem of ocean pollution from plastic.
-
Recyclable packaging Cardboard and paper are also highly recyclable materials. By being returned to the recycling loop, they can be used to create new products. The use of recycled cardboard and paper helps to reduce resource consumption and the environmental impact associated with the production of new materials.
