Our Approach to Sustainability
Sustainability, for Plastic Free Pursuit,is less about perfection and more about quiet, consistent choices that add upover time. Every product, material, and partner is chosen to support alower-waste lifestyle that feels elevated, effortless, and aligned with how youactually live.
Plastic Free, By Design
Plastic Free Pursuit is dedicated to offering items that are completely free of single-use plastics.
- Our products are reusable, or designed to be recyclable or
compostable at end of life wherever possible. - Instead of plastic bottles and jars, we prioritize glass and
metal, which are infinitely recyclable in most municipal systems. - When something cannot be fully circular yet, we look for the
lowest-impact option available and stay transparent about it.
If you’re ever unsure how to dispose of a container or package, you can reach out and we’ll help you find the most sustainable option in your area.
Thoughtful Packaging & Shipping
Every order is packed to match what is inside: considered, minimal, and free of plastic.
- Shipping labels are printed on 100% recycled paper with biodegradable adhesive.
- Boxes are 100% recyclable, and we use repurposed kraft paper or newspaper for padding.
- All paper and cardboard packaging can be recycled or composted at home.
- We ship primarily with USPS, using routes that already exist,
helping reduce the additional footprint of your order in transit. Whenever possible, we also reuse materials from our suppliers, so if your box looks a little “lived in,” that’s by design.
Carbon‑Neutral Shipping with Planet
Plastic Free Pursuit contributes a portion of every order to Shopify’s Planetprogram, which measures the emissions from our shipments and funds verifiedcarbon removal projects to balance them out. With each purchase, we cover thecost of supporting innovative climate solutions, so your package arrives with alighter footprint—at no extra cost to you.
Curation Over Consumption
Sustainability is not just what we sell, but how we edit.
- We focus on well-made essentials that replace disposable habits rather than adding more “stuff.”
- Many of our products are designed as simple swaps—solid bars instead of bottles, reusable tools instead of single-use plastics.
- We look for ingredients and materials that are safe for you and gentler on the planet, avoiding known toxins and unnecessary additives.
The goal: fewer, better things that
integrate seamlessly into your everyday routines.
Conscious Partnerships
We work with makers and brands that shareour values—prioritizing responsible materials, ethical production, andlow-waste design. Partners like Tiradia Cork, for example, turn sustainablyharvested cork into vegan, durable accessories that support local artisans andprotect biodiverse cork forests.We also support broader environmentalefforts through initiatives such as tree-planting partnerships and ongoingeducation around low-waste living.
A Journey, Not a Finish Line
Sustainability is a journey, not adestination, and both individuals and brands are always learning. Plastic FreePursuit is committed to improving over time—refining products, reducing wastein our operations, and sharing what we learn so your choices can feel a littleclearer, and a lot more intentional.
