Eco Friendly Gift Ideas for Christmas

Eco Friendly Gift Ideas for Christmas

Christmas is upon us, and it’s a time many eco-conscious people dread. Buying presents for people who might not want, need or use them, knowing the materials will survive on the planet long after we’re a distant memory - it’s a social nicety that can be tough to wriggle out of.

Thankfully it’s never been easier to find eco-friendly gift options. More people are adopting the mantra “reduce, re-use, recycle” and by selecting quality products made from quality sustainable materials we can treat our loved ones to and enjoy the holidays without feeling guilty.

Here are our favourites:
