Zero Waste Week: How plastic can be good for our environment

Zero Waste Week: Embracing Plastic for a Greener Future

By Jake Kirk • Wednesday 8th September 2021

The word 'plastic' tends to evoke negative reactions in conversations about the environment. Its durability—often seen as a flaw—means it can linger in landfills for centuries, and the sheer volume being produced today raises serious concerns. However, this very persistence makes plastic an excellent candidate for reusable products. Its resilience ensures it can endure repeated use, cutting down on the need for disposable alternatives and significantly reducing the energy and resources required for equivalent tasks. At Kite, we’ve embraced the use of regran plastic, which is recycled and repurposed rather than made from raw materials. In certain cases, this approach can eliminate waste entirely, making it a perfect fit for "Zero Waste Week."

Our bale arm crates serve as a prime example of how plastic can be sustainably integrated into everyday use. Entirely crafted from regran material, these crates are built to last for years, thanks to their robust design and durable construction. Recycled pellets are fused together to create a resilient polymer, paired with smart engineering features to maximize their lifespan. Every aspect of the crate's structure emphasizes longevity, from its wide, tray-like shape that evenly distributes weight to its stackable form that saves space while securing loads efficiently. The retractable bale arm adds convenience by allowing users to effortlessly transition between stacking and nesting crates, optimizing space usage. Additionally, the lightweight material makes transportation a breeze, and its waterproof nature protects contents from moisture damage.

Our attached lid containers represent another innovative solution, with the black versions containing 100% recycled plastic for both the base and lid. Despite their impressive eco-friendly attributes, these containers are built to handle demanding tasks. For added durability, Kite offers a version with a regran base and a virgin-material lid, catering to all requirements while maintaining reliability. By pairing a newly manufactured lid with a recycled base, we strategically allocate resources, focusing virgin plastic only where it’s crucial—such as at the points where lids are stacked and secured using side tabs. This thoughtful design avoids unnecessary waste while ensuring the containers withstand harsh conditions and extensive use. Consequently, these containers offer an economical and environmentally responsible option.

Investing in a single plastic container eliminates the need for ongoing waste generation. The same principle applies to our plastic pallets and plastic pallet boxes, which are designed for indefinite reuse. These thoughtfully engineered products harmonize functionality with environmental consciousness, proving that achieving zero waste doesn’t necessitate abandoning plastic altogether. Once you invest in such items, every subsequent use contributes to a cleaner planet. By embracing these innovations, we can redefine our relationship with plastic, turning it into a force for sustainability during Zero Waste Week and beyond.

As we celebrate Zero Waste Week, let’s reconsider our perceptions of plastic. While its overuse has undeniably caused harm, rethinking how we utilize it opens doors to smarter, greener solutions. From crates to containers, the potential for sustainable plastic use is immense. Together, we can transform this material from a symbol of pollution into a beacon of progress.
