Dear Customer,

Gree(n)tings
 
It's hard to believe that we are more than halfway through the year and that it is already the July issue of our newsletter! As you will see, we've changed the layout of our newsletter. We hope you will find it to be more user-friendly and, as always, any feedback is much appreciated at Green Home headquarters.

It's been great to see Green Home products in action at events such as the the Hostex Exhibition at the Cape Town International Convention Center (CTICC) last month (see photo below). In fact, the CTICC will, from this month, be introducing Green Home's biodegradable take-away containers throughout the venue.

And as of August, Woolworths Head Office Campus will be going biodegradable!

On the media front, Green Home products were recently featured in ELLE fashion.

Green Home products can now be bought online through Ethical Co-op.  See www.ethical.org.za

As the impetus to replace conventional, petroleum-based plastic with an enviromentally-kinder alternative made from plants gains more momentum worldwide, the media has been quick to point out the potential for environmental problems and consumer confusion. Read more here...
  Climate change and bioplastics
climate change
There is no doubt that our dependency on petroleum is a major contributing factor to climate change - whether it is the petrol that we put in our car or the polystyrene cup that we use for our take-away coffee.
