Sustainable Homeware Brands
LIVING ROOM
Weaver Green
Interiors brand Weaver Green understands the severity of the world’s plastic pollution problem. That’s why they’re doing their bit to help. All Weaver Green’s textiles and home accessories look and feel like materials such as cotton and wool, but are made from 100% recyclable materials. In fact, they are responsible for recycling over 80 million plastic bottles and turning them into beautiful, contemporary home textiles. weavergreen.com
Lillian Daph
Created by the founders of sustainable homeware brand Weaver Green (above), Lillian Daph has a collection of cushions and throws made from around 300 discarded plastic bottles. lilliandaph.co.uk
Muck N Brass
You might’ve seen Muck N Brass founder Zoe Pocock on BBC One’s Flipping Profit or co-presenting on Cbeebies’ Junk Rescue, teaching the public about the benefits and joys of upcycling. Her brand, Muck N Brass, creatively re-purposes once loved homeware items such as furniture and lighting that have been dumped, turning them into modish homewares that can make any room pop. mucknbrass.com
Relish
Connoisseurs of vintage furniture, Relish is a lifestyle brand selling pre-loved vintage homewares.

KITCHEN
Zuperzocial
Their tableware collection is eco friendly, with durable plates made from corn starch and bamboo fibres. They’re produced in China, and employee care is highly regulated to make sure no child labour is present and that employees don’t come into contact with harmful materials. Also, each product is biodegradable, decomposing within 24 months, meaning that if for some reason items do end up in a landfill, they won’t be there for long. Even the labels on the packaging are recyclable! Zuperzocial at formahouse.co.uk
Vaya
Vaya’s preserve jars are a super convenient way to store food and eliminate the need for plastic packaging. Take them with when getting a takeaway and ask the restaurant to fill them up with your order so that you don’t have to use their (sometimes disposable) packaging – Vaya’s jars can keep food fresh and either warm or cold for 6 hours. You can also fill a kitchen shelf with these babies and take them with to zero waste shops to buy groceries like pasta and nuts. Perfect for also storing coffee, buy from Percol, an organic, fair trade, plastic-free brand selling instant, beans, ground, bags, and iced coffee. vayalife.com
Waikiki
Keep a couple of these reusable bottles in the kitchen so that whoever is running out the door can grab one and never has to buy a single-use plastic bottle again. The stainless steel bottles are BPA-free (a chemical used to make certain plastics such as plastic bottles) and Waikiki is the only reusable bottle brand with a Take-Back programme, meaning when you no longer want or need your bottle, you can send it back to Waikiki and ‘support a circular economy’. waikikibottle.com

An eco-sustainable brand, SEP Jordan’s products are hand-embroidered minimising the use of machinery, and the fabrics they use are spared from chemical colouring.
