How to have a more Sustainable Christmas with Dexam
The holiday season is a wonderful time for gathering with loved ones, sharing meals and exchanging gifts. But it’s also a time when waste and excess tends to add up.
At Dexam, we believe that with a few thoughtful choices we can all celebrate the season a bit more sustainably.
Here are some simple yet effective ways to bring a green touch to your Christmas this year!
Choose Reusable Gift Wraps
Most wrapping paper isn’t recyclable due to laminations, glitter and plastic coatings.
Instead, consider alternatives that are reusable and sustainable. Dexam's Recycled Cotton Tea Towels make for unique and eye-catching gift wrap that doubles as a present in itself!
Whether you wrap up a baking set or a collection of kitchen tools, your loved ones will appreciate the extra thought that went into a wrap they can use year-round.
Plan for Zero Food Waste
Holiday meals often result in leftovers but with a little planning, you can reduce food waste and make the most of every ingredient. Why not use vegetable scraps to make a rich, homemade stock in a Chasseur Casserole Dish? For meats and roasted veggies, our Cast-Iron Oven Dishes make reheating on the hob a breeze and our Storage Containers are always around to keep everything fresh.
Gift Thoughtfully with Quality, Lasting Items
Instead of buying gifts that might end up in the back of a cupboard, choose high-quality, durable kitchenware that will be used and cherished.
Dexam's Supreme Stainless-Steel range is designed to last for generations, making it a meaningful and sustainable gift. Buying thoughtfully crafted, durable items means less waste and fewer replacements in the future.
Use Natural and Homemade Decorations
Plastic decorations may be convenient but natural décor has a charm and sustainability factor that’s hard to beat.
Think sprigs of pine, pinecones and dried orange slices. Dried fruit garlands, cinnamon sticks and homemade wreaths add a cosy touch and can be composted once the season is over.
Why not surprise loved ones with a box of home-baked goodies this year? Home-made Christmas cookies using the Dexam Cookie Cutter Set serve as both a yummy treat and a thoughtful gift.
Small Steps, Big Difference
Sustainability doesn’t have to mean compromising on holiday cheer.
By choosing reusable gift wraps, reducing food waste, opting for natural decor and focusing on quality, you’re giving a little back to the planet while celebrating with loved ones.
With Dexam's kitchen essentials and a bit of creativity, you can make this Christmas a celebration that’s not costing the Earth.
