8 million pieces of plastic pollution find their way into the ocean every single day.

Only 9% of plastic waste is recycled worldwide, 12% is incinerated and the remaining 79% is sent to landfill or the ocean.

Something has to change.

What is plastic free July?

The concept started in Western Australia in 2011 and has now become a global movement. It encourages people for one month to choose alternatives to single-use plastics in the hope to continue this after the month and make these permanent changes. 

Here at GoJute, we have exceeded our plastic-free mission, so we want to help others!

Our aim for plastic-free July is to help our clients achieve their plastic-free goals whether that is swapping their packaging for plastic-free alternatives or creating a sustainable way to carry their brand further.

Having Europe’s largest range of Jute, Cotton and Juco products means we can help your business join the plastic-free mission.
