Coasters & Bowls (made from recycled newspaper)

Stop spills, by using these recycled newspaper coasters, sold as a set in their own holder. Handmade by a social enterprise in Sri Lanka, these coasters help to reduce the amount of global waste, and cut down on use of unsustainable resources.

These recycled newspaper bowls can be used to stash keys or anything that could get lost. You could even use them as tip trays for small shops and restaurants.

Don’t put sweets or chocolate in them, near young children or pets.

It’s true that newspaper breaks down in landfills (unlike plastic). But this still causes methane, a potent greenhouse gas to be released. So making old newspapers into other things, helps to reduce emissions and therefore climate change.
