Reuseit.com Goes Back to School with Waste-Free Lunch and Benny Bento
Madison, VA (PRWEB) July 16, 2013 -- Since their start in 2003, Reuseit.com has focused on providing consumers with high-quality reusable replacements for use-and-toss items. One of their passions is Waste-Free Lunch, and they make good on their commitment with back-to-school products like lunch bags, bento boxes, utensils with carrying case, water bottles, snack baggies—even a juice box—all reusable items that reduce lunchtime waste. It’s a move that makes complete eco-sense for families across the country, considering that the United States Environmental Protection Agency reports that the average child’s lunch creates 67 pounds of garbage every school year. Plus, reusables save families money.
“Packing a waste-free lunch is a simple step towards sustainability that parents can take. We’ve chosen products with fun patterns and styles that kids and their parents will love to make taking that step that much easier,” said Allison Kinney, Brand Manager. “We search for products that have passed safety tests so that parents can rest assured knowing their purchases are safe and healthy as well.”
Reuseit.com’s waste-free lunch collection has something for everyone—from toddlers teetering off to daycare to young adults zipping off to college. There are backpacks and lunch bags made from single-use water bottles, a lunch box that zips open and transforms into a placemat, and a reusable juice box among the offerings. And waste-free lunch doesn’t stop with the kiddos. Parents can choose from products like lunch bags in all shapes, sizes and colors (some with removable ice packs), true Japanese-style bento boxes and a glass water bottle that can withstand high impact. This is good news on both the economical and eco-friendly fronts, given that a recent study conducted by ECOlunchboxes.com shows that an average family spends about $400 extra through the use of disposable lunchware and creates 4,320 trash units unnecessarily.
This school year, Reuseit.com is also introducing Benny Bento, an eco-aware icon designed to educate and inform parents and their kids on the staggering stats around lunchtime waste. Reuseit.com will also publish their first virtual catalogs so parents and kids can easily find their favorite new reusables for waste-free lunch and beyond.
