    Have Yourself a Very Eco-Christmas

    The song says it all – and for most of us; Christmas really is the most wonderful time of the year! However, unfortunately for our beloved planet, it is generally the most destructive; with roll upon roll of single use gift wrap and the plastic fantastic extravaganza that comes with buying boxed gifts and toys. Making Christmas as environmentally friendly as possible is so much easier than you think! Whether you’re shopping for a proud eco-warrior or someone at the beginning of their eco-journey; wanting to make a difference, but no idea where to begin. We have something for everyone at every budget, making GR8 Health your one stop shop for Eco friendly gift ideas that you’ll be honoured to pop under the tree this year.

    Onya reusable cup

    Can’t function without your morning cup of joe? Neither can we! Takeaway coffee cups may look recyclable but in fact they are generally lined with a plastic resin making them 100% NON-recyclable. Onya’s retro looking range of coffee cups are made to be reused again and again. Made from 100% food-safe silicone – the coffee cups are light, tough, attractive, very durable and most importantly – they won’t affect your favourite coffee’s taste. The cups are designed to barista standards, which means they will fit in the machine at your favourite café. PLEASE NOTE: ALL COFFEE CUPS COME WITH A WHITE LID INCLUDED Shop Now

    Ever Eco Stainless Steel Straws

    “It’s only 1 straw – said 8 billion people”   This is without doubt, one of the easiest ways to start your eco-journey. Sip sustainably by replacing plastic straws with these reusable Ever Eco Straws. Fantastic for both adults and kids, they add fun and a stylish touch to any drink. Crafted from #304 food grade stainless steel, their 8mm diameter is perfect for juices, smoothies, iced coffee’s or a festive Christmas cocktail. A bonus cleaning brush and a small tote bag to store the straw easily in your handbag or office desk, is included in every pack. Shop Now

    Onya Reusable Produce Bags

    After all of the hype, how easy was it to stop using single use plastic bags at the checkout? This is great news as now you know that it will be just as easy to replace single use plastic bags for all of your produce/fruit and veg with these incredible reusable bags. The Onya produce bags are super light, but incredibly strong and hold up to 2kgs of fresh produce easily. The bags can be hand washed with cool water, or they can be put on a cool gentle cycle in the washing machine. The bags let water and air flow through which allows your produce to breathe making a longer shelf life. Shop Now

    Natural Value Sponges and Scourers

    OK OK, I know a kitchen sponge or scourer isn’t going to be your first thought of gift idea this Christmas, but hear me out! Everyday sponges are generally derived from oil based plastics, which are definitely not eco-friendly. In addition, sponges that are labelled antibacterial or odour-removing generally contain chemicals called endocrine disruptors that are not good for our bodies! These cellulose sponges are made from vegetable and wood pulp and are completely biodegradable. Best yet, they’re cheap as chips – at just over $3, they are the perfect stocking filler! Shop Now

    WotNot Biodegradable Bags

    When I had my daughter, one of the first things I realised was just how much ‘plastic fantastic’ now surrounded me. These biodegradable bags are made from a cornstarch base so they are 100% biodegradable and perfect for disposing of nappies when you’re out and about. Like all WOTNOT products, these nappy bags are free from sulphates, petrochemicals, parabens, artificial preservatives and fragrances. They also double up for collecting dog waste or food scraps for the compost bin! Shop Now

They weigh literally nothing and take up very little space in your bag. The set includes chopsticks, and an organic cotton storage pouch making it super convenient to travel with; whether you’re backpacking globally or in between inner-city meetings. Shop Now
