Eco-Friendly Kitchen Organisers: The Revolution You Never Knew You Needed
Eco-Friendly Kitchen Organisers: The Revolution You Never Knew You Needed
Hey there, fellow kitchen enthusiasts! Ever feel like your kitchen’s playing a practical joke on you? One minute it’s tidy, the next it’s total chaos. Well, you’re not alone. Most people find their utensil drawer and kitchen storage slabs cluttered and busy. It is time for a kitchen organiser revolution.
But not just any organisers – we’re talking eco-friendly kitchen organisers that’ll make both your space and Mother Earth happy. Buckle up, because we are about to share some game-changing discoveries that’ll transform your kitchen chaos into eco-chic order.
The Plastic Problem in Our Kitchen Organisers
Let’s start with the elephant in the room – plastic kitchen organisers. They’re everywhere, right? Most of us are used to having drawers full of them, most warped from one too many encounters with hot leftovers. Not exactly the durable kitchen organisers we were promised.
Enter the heroes of our story: steel containers, glass jars and bamboo organisers. These aren’t your grandma’s kitchen organisers (though she’d probably approve).
Steel Containers: The Shiny Winners
Steel containers have been around for decades – not just the solution, the products also last many many years and are usually inherited from generation to generation, especially in countries like India.
They last forever (without any frills attached)
They look shiny and you know when to clean them (great kitchen upgrade!)
The downside is that they are relatively expensive to purchase and they are not safe for use in microwave devices. The carbon footprint of making steel containers is very high, but it is justified as long as they are used for tens of years.
Glass Jars: The See-Through Winners
Glass jars address all the drawbacks of the steel container, plus they are transparent changing the way you look at the storage solutions. Game. Changer. These kitchen organisers are like x-ray vision for your fridge. No more mystery leftovers!
They don’t hold smells (goodbye, eternal tomato sauce scent)
They last forever (okay, not literally, but you get the idea)
They look fancy (instant kitchen upgrade!)
The downside to glass jars is that they are fragile and unless they are handled carefully, they are easy to break. The carbon footprint of making glass jars is also high, but they can be recycled infinite number of times and as long as the broken glass jars are sent for recycling, they are sustainable.
Bamboo Organisers: Not Just for Pandas
Although bamboo is not ideal to store food and food grains, bamboo has a role to play as kitchen organisers. These bad boys are the Swiss Army knife of kitchen organisation. The bamboo drawer dividers can reduce chaos in the utensil drawer.
