Plastic pegs break down in the weather and the wooden pegs go mouldy!  Replacing products frequently is not a sustainable way of life as it leaves a massive impact on the environment and the planet. Any sort of manufacturing and production takes energy, resources, manpower, freight/shipping etc..

Clothes Peg – such a common and simple product in our daily lives yet can leave a negative impact on the environment.

We may think the impact of plastic pegs is negligible as compared to total plastic consumed and discarded globally but when we look at the bigger picture where pegs are an everyday essential used by almost every household globally and they break down easily (some last a bit longer as compared to others) even if they are UV treated or whatnot.  Plastic breaks down into micro-plastics and studies have confirmed traces of microplastics found in oceans,  fresh-water, waste water,  air, soil and salt as well, further damaging our ecosystem.

According to Green Peace.org, globally only 9% plastic gets recycled. According to Environmental Health News( EHN), globally we are producing and discarding almost 360 million tons of plastic a year.

The solution lies in consuming less, buying quality reusable products that last, can be repaired or recycled, reused without leaving a negative impact behind should be our goal.
