A lower-plastic desk
The workday is full of disposable plastic: cases, pens, packaging. A few swaps quietly cut it.
The desk is a steady drip of disposable plastic: pens, phone cases, packaging. None of it is dramatic on its own, but it is plastic that fragments and lingers, and it is easy to swap for compostable and refillable alternatives you will barely notice.
Desk plastic
A compostable flax-and-biopolymer phone case, a refillable pen barrel and a tree-free stone-paper notebook cut the everyday plastic from your workspace without giving up durability.
Paper goods
Bamboo toilet paper wrapped in paper rather than plastic is a simple, recurring swap that adds up over a year of restocks.
Common questions
- Is a compostable phone case durable enough?
- Yes. Flax-and-biopolymer cases offer normal drop protection and are designed to compost at end of life rather than sit in landfill for centuries.
- What is stone paper?
- Paper made from recycled stone powder bound with a small amount of resin. It is tree-free, water-resistant and free of the plastic lamination found in many notebooks.
