Carton vases, made from recycled paperboard, are a perfect option for eco-friendly flower bouquets. They are biodegradable and can be easily disposed of in the recycling bin. Additionally, carton vases hold water bags, making it easy to transport flowers in water, and they can be customized to fit any occasion or style.
Breaking glass, like vases, can be particularly dangerous for older adults. As we age, our skin becomes thinner and less elastic, which makes it more prone to cuts and bruises. Additionally, older adults may have weaker bones and reduced mobility, which can make it difficult for them to handle heavy glass vases and avoid or escape from broken glass. Their first instinct will be to pick up broken pieces of a dropped vase, therefore, it's important to take steps to prevent dangerous glass vases in areas where older adults frequent and to clean up any broken glass immediately to reduce the risk of injury.
The carton ECO vase works perfectly in hospitals and aged care where the danger of glass is eliminated.
Hospital staff love these eco vases as they are maintenance-free, don’t smell, and can be thrown out without a vase being left behind.
When it comes to the flowers themselves, there are many options for eco-friendly bouquets. One option is to choose locally grown flowers that require less transportation and have a lower carbon footprint. Flowers by Zak now offers locally sourced flower options that are both beautiful and sustainable.
Another option is to choose organic or sustainably grown flowers. These flowers are grown without harmful pesticides and chemicals, which not only benefits the environment but also ensures that the flowers are safe for those who handle them.
Finally, you can opt for dried or preserved flowers. These flowers are long-lasting and can be reused multiple times, making them a sustainable choice. Additionally, they require less water and maintenance than fresh flowers, making them a great option for those who want low-maintenance but still beautiful bouquets.
When it comes to creating eco-friendly flower bouquets in carton vases, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just want to show someone you care, an eco-friendly bouquet is a great choice that benefits both the environment and the recipient.
