Durable and stylish plastic alternatives for home and away

#OnlyOne Earth – this is the slogan for this year’s World Environment Day on the 5th of June 2022. It appeals to us to adopt a more mindful lifestyle, continuously reflecting on and questioning our own actions and their environmental impact. Many people are now making this shift towards more mindful consumption in everyday life, and in particular in the kitchen. Practical steps include: reducing waste, avoiding food wastage where possible and seeking out replacements for plastic utensils. Villeroy & Boch offers high-quality alternatives in modern designs for anyone wishing to swap plastic for porcelain and glass.

To Go & To Stay: glass and porcelain lunch boxes for transport and storage

When it comes to meal prepping, the To Go & To Stay collection is a better alternative to plastic tubs. The products don't get scratched or lose their shape when you heat them in the microwave, and they don't release harmful substances or discolour. With their elegant shapes and pastel colours, To Go & To Stay is ideal for transporting a lunchtime sandwich, salads or snacks as well as for healthy and easy storage of unpackaged foods. Durable and stylish - the stackable glass and porcelain containers impress on both fronts.

Artesano Hot & Cold Beverages: glass straws

In 2021, the EU introduced a ban on many single-use plastic items, including drinking straws. These have quickly been replaced by paper alternatives, but the issue of waste remains. Villeroy & Boch's colourful drinking straws are a better solution: made from borosilicate glass, they are robust, taste-neutral, hygienic and can be reused over and over again.

Coffee to go: for a coffee break without waste, any time, any place

Whether in the car, train, office or when working from home – the mugs from the Coffee To Go collection should always be within easy reach. Even if it is recyclable and biodegradable, a paper cup will still be disposed of after just one use. With their sophisticated design, Villeroy & Boch’s porcelain mugs are the ultimate zero-waste solution. Simply take your coffee to go mug along to your favourite coffee shop, have it filled it with coffee and continue on your way - with one cup less going in the rubbish bin.
