Shopping zero waste is becoming increasingly popular as more of us are trying to reduce our use of plastic in our day-to-day lives. A simple way to reduce our use of plastic is by shopping at refill or zero waste shops. They’re designed in a way where you can bring your own reusable bags and jars, then refill what you need from their stations. This reduces the amount of plastic being used when you go food shopping.
The Kilner® Bulk Food Bags are specially designed for refill shops. They're compact and are perfect for filling, weighing and carrying dried foods like rice, pasta, lentils, cereals and oats. Both the small and medium Bulk Food Bags hold the capacity of our 1 Litre and 2 Litre Clip Top Jars, so you can decant your Bulk Food Bag contents into your Kilner® Jars at home with ease! Head over to our Instagram @kilner_uk to see how we use our Food Bulk Bags in action.
