Multitude of ways
Our ice packs can be recycled in a multitude of ways, from re-using in your home, donating to local food banks or simply recycling them. We've made a few suggestions of how to recycle and re-use them below:
RE-USE
Wipe down and re-freeze the packs, ready to use in a picnic bag or on your next fishing trip.
FREECYCLE
Freecycle is a global grassroots and entirely non-profit movement that enables individuals to give and receive products for free. Its mission is to reduce waste, save resources and ease the burden on landfills whilst building stronger and larger communities. For more information, please visit freecycle.
DONATE
Contact your local food bank as they may be able to put these to good use to keep food donations cool.
FREEZER INSULATION
Another inventive way to re-use these packs is to line the bottom and sides of your freezer with them. This will help keep the temperature of your freezer more consistent.
REDUCE & RECYCLE
These gel packs are filled with non-toxic water-based salt solution, so simply defrost, cut open the bag and pour the contents down the drain using hot tap water to help dissolve the gel. Recycle the plastic according to your local recycling regulations.
Woolcool fleece lining
We are very proud to use Woolcool fleece lining to keep your food insulated and protected as it makes its way from our kitchen to your home. The fleece lining is made from sheep's wool that has been washed, scoured, then sealed in recyclable micro-perforated polyethylene wrap. The wool itself is biodegradable and breaks down easily to release nutrients into the soil so you can add it to your home compost. You can also be creative when it comes to re-using the wool, follow #letsboxclever for lots of inspirational tips and tricks.
