For some years, we have given new life to the jute sacks that the peanuts arrive in at our factory. To make the famous Schullo Peanut Butter we buy the best peanuts in 50 kg jute sacks.
The sacks, once cleaned, are recycled into everyday reusable totes, pencil cases for school children, and lunch totes. Over the years the designs have changed, this one that is featured is a design we have had for a few years, so we are busy redesigning the bags at the moment to make them a little bigger. Once we have the new ones we will update this photo.
The Jute plant is a hearty consumer of carbon dioxide. Jute is 100% organic as no pesticides or fertilizers are needed, given the natural resilience of the plant. Jute fiber is 100% biodegradable, and its strength is legendary.
We are constantly looking for ways to reuse, recycle, and reduce waste. Along with our other recycling programs this has been a total success for the environment and us. Our customers are happy to have a great tote made from recycled jute.
