Time to bin the plastic

Plastic waste
Let’s reduce this.

We’re surrounded by plastic. Water bottles, supermarket packaging, coffee cups. The damage it’s doing to us, our oceans and wildlife is incalculable.

At Snorestore, we recycle everything that can be recycled. There’s a lot of cardboard and paper and that’s easily dealt with. But the plastic which can’t be recycled is unacceptably high. We want to reduce this.

We are going to start by offering an “ECO” option for some of the earplugs which until now, we have put together for you in plastic bags. The plastic bag will go, and you will receive individually wrapped pairs of earplugs instead. Not as neat and tidy, but that’s one plastic bag fewer. A drop in the ocean perhaps, but who knows, it could be the most important drop for, say, a sea turtle.

As an incentive, we are reducing the price of these options very slightly. Your feedback, as ever, is welcome.

  2. Wonderful guys ,I am currently moving my family towards zero waste ideas so this helps!

  3. Thanks so much for for this! May all other retailers follow in your footsteps. You have my loyal custom

  4. How do I buy EAR FX plugs? Your site says no longer available but available as an ECO option, which would be great but there is no way to buy them from the link. Please help.

    1. Hi. Because of Brexit, supplies are intermittent. We release a few sets most days. We have just released some more so you should now be able to order. Best wishes, Snorestore
