At STAYHOLD® we are very conscious about sustainability. We are cognisant that we are making products from plastic and as such we are constantly taking steps to improve our sustainability through our design choices, material selection, engineering, packaging and wherever else possible. Already we have switched some of our shopping holder products to include recycled plastic without reducing the physical properties of the product. Similarly our cargo wedge’s incorporate recycled rubber from car tyres.

These are initial steps and we know that we are still using virgin material alongside the recycled component but we intend that it’s impact is minimised though our industrial design and engineering. We are not in the business of making disposable plastic product or products which will break after a short amount of time. All of our products are designed, engineered and produced only after meticulous consideration of material suitability and strength for purpose. We take time selecting materials appropriately so that each product is built to last and endure it’s intended use again and again and again.

We also consider product end-of-life by aiming to reduce the amount of combined materials used in our products to make disassembly and recycling easier. Our Sidekick range is made exclusively from one materials, polypropylene which can be recycled. Our Safety Shovels have rubber squeegees which are removable instead of being over-moulded so they can be replaced if needed and at end of life can be removed easily.

This is the ethos we carry into our design process and our goal is to improve every day.
