]]>The post Has nature already solved our plastic packaging problem? appeared first on Kudo Blog.
]]>Like a growing number of consumers, I’m fed up with the sheer amount of single-use plastics we consume, of which the majority will end up in landfills, or worse, our oceans.
Did you know there’s a plastic vortex floating between Hawaii and Canada that’s 3 times the size of France? Well, now you do – and it’s growing by the day.
Not only is this wreaking havoc for our fish friends, but over 100,000 sea mammals and 1m seabirds are killed each year due to ocean plastic.
Whilst our first port of call should be to reduce, reuse and recycle – we should also assume that the waste we produce may end up in the ocean, and so it’s time we shift to using materials that are both earth and ocean-friendly.
Old Mother Nature, for all her flaws, gets many things right. The majority of fruits, nuts and vegetables we consume come pre-packaged to help protect their delicious nourishment.
Take the humble banana, wrapped in a thick, waxy skin with built-in easy-peel technology and state-of-the-art ripeness indicators, so you know the perfect time to tuck in. Once consumed, simply fling its leftover jacket under a tree where it will quickly break down and fertilise the earth, helping to grow future plants.
Sounds pretty perfect right? Then why, oh why, do we double package bananas in a plastic film that doesn’t get recycled, leaches toxins and provides little benefit to the protection of the product? Dare I say, it’s bananas?
Many excellent materials already exist that have the same properties as their plastic counterparts but break down quickly in natural environments. These include a fungus-based packaging that imitates styrofoam, or, in the case of the banana bag, there’s a starch-based transparent film that makes for a perfect replacement.
Whilst there are many alternatives to single-use plastics, they are much more difficult to source and come with a heftier price tag. The government has recently introduced a plastic tax, which will help a little in creating price parity, but we need to do much more in order to combat this plastic plague.
This is why at Kudo, we’ve made a pledge to ban single-use plastics from our Instant Marketplace, and will soon be releasing a range of packaging products using only planet-friendly materials.
We understand that it’s a formidable task to get consumers to change their consumption habits, so rather than taking away convenience, let’s make better choices in the materials we choose as a society.

]]>The post Support reforestation every time you order appeared first on Kudo Blog.
]]>Thanks to our new partnership with Trees For The Future, and with the help of our loyal customers, we will now be able to help reforest the planet every time an order is placed through our platform!
To kick-start our partnership and show our commitment to being a sustainable business, we’ve donated over 10,000 trees to the reforestation project.
Tree planting is just one small part of our overall sustainability efforts, which you can read more about here. We also make sure to only source paper and cardboard that is 100% recycled or FSC Certified. This gives us and our customers peace of mind that all our products are made with materials sourced from properly managed forests, where new trees are planted to ensure the industry remains sustainable.
Trees.org is an award-winning non-profit with over three decades of tree planting experience. They have revitalised hundreds of thousands of acres of soil, helping to improve the lives of thousands of families.
Farmland is considered to be the leading cause of the climate crisis. Empowering local farmers to move away from unsustainable farming techniques to forest garden systems that combat the cycle of poverty is a mission we want to get fully behind!
In their words, when you plant trees with farmers, you aren’t just helping the planet and future generations; you’re immediately impacting the lives of families in need, supporting wildlife and restoring biodiversity.
Visit trees.org to find out more about the extraordinary work Trees For The Future carry out to help with reforestation in some of the world’s poorest communities.

]]>The post Introducing Kudo Instant appeared first on Kudo Blog.
]]>Kudo Instant is the world’s first sustainable marketplace for mass-customisation products. It offers businesses access to highly customisable, made-to-order goods including print, packaging, textiles and promotional merchandise – putting sustainability at the heart of its processes.
Our goal is to increase transparency around the environmental impact of the products that businesses purchase. We want to give them the opportunity to work with manufacturers who’ll produce the same high-quality goods, without harming the planet.
Soon, every product available in Kudo Instant will be accompanied by an easy-to-digest report outlining its environmental credentials, and scored from most to least sustainable. We hope that by promoting the most environmentally friendly products, we can help businesses to make informed sourcing decisions – and save them time and money too.
Sourcing mass-customisation products is a difficult and time-consuming challenge for businesses. Kudo Instant collaborates with the best manufacturers in the world, matching each product with the vendors most suited to produce them.
Behind the scenes, we perform strict due diligence and continually monitor each vendor’s performance, ensuring products meet the highest standards across the board. This means you can get instant quotes and purchase products on-demand, with peace of mind that you’re in good hands.
During our beta testing, we’ll be working with a limited product range. This allows us to learn and adapt our system to meet businesses’ and suppliers’ precise needs, so that going forward, you’ll have access to the best manufacturers, materials and products worldwide.
Until then, to celebrate Kudo Instant’s beta launch and solidify our commitment to sustainability, we’ve partnered with Trees for the Future, and donated to plant over 10,000 trees.
We’d love you to join us on our journey as we transform the mass-customisation market for the better – and there’s not long to wait! When we’re confident the platform is ready to scale, we’ll begin ramping up new product launches. Watch this space!
