Are ecopompoms really enviromentally friendly?
The Ecopompom is environmentally friendly because it contains a re-usable bag, which means that it saves single use plastic bags from being used. It is always with you, on your keyring, so many people find that instead of getting a bag every time they forget to take a reusable bag into a shop, they always have the Ecopompom with them – and this saves excessive reusable bags being bought, which are also usually made from plastic (this is a problem that most of us forget on top of forgetting our bags!!!).
What are the ecopompoms made from?
They are cruelty free Faux fur and faux leather.
Where are ecopompoms made?
Ecopompom is a homegrown NZ Business, and it is NZ designed, assembled & packaged. The ecopompom’s components are made overseas (like many New Zealand made products whose raw materials are made in other countries), but the ecopompom was assembled here, and its packaging is made in NZ, and so supports local NZ businesses.
When creating the Ecopompom, we spent many months trying to find everything in NZ, but this was impossible, and also would have made the product around 4 x the price. Our business is a local NZ business, so if someone buys our products they are supporting local, because it supports ours, and others’ families (just like when you support your local cafe, who buy their coffee beans and other food products from OS).
We also have other parts of our business that are also completely NZ based products and services. (see www.compostaway.co.nz)
How do I use my ecopompom…. and is the bag attached?
Using the ecopompom is easy! Just pull it out and fill with your shopping. And the bag isn’t attached, so you can simply take it out and still use your keys without any hassle.
How do I get the ecopompom back in?
That’s easy too! See below for the way we’ve found to be the easiest.
