SUSTAINABILITY
Here at the Guild, we're always trying to improve the products we offer in our cafes to be as eco-friendly and sustainable as possible.
Since launching our WRITE Solutions Australia composting bins in October 2019, an estimated 9,135kg of organic waste has been collected and turned into compost that can be reused to fertilise our gardens. This has prevented the equivalent emissions of 300 cars being taken off the road for a whole two weeks!
Check out some changes we've already made and let us know what you'd like to see next!
Did you know
- Glass is one of the materials which can be recycled infinitely, plastic is limited to around seven times as the quality of the plastic decreases each time
- Not all plastics are recyclable - look for the recycling symbol with the number 1, 2 or 5 on the packaging itself (not the label)
- The energy saved by recycling one plastic bottle can power a computer for 25 minutes
- Recycling one aluminium can saves enough energy to power a 100watt light bulb for 20 hours
- Making an aluminium can out of used aluminium only requires 5% of the energy of making a can from scratch
