Plastic? No Thanks!


       At L’Ouest we believe in doing as much as we can to minimize our impact on the environment. That's why all of our products are bottled in either aluminum or glass.

 
     One of the biggest contributors to pollution and climate change, single use plastics aren’t biodegradable and stay in the environment for hundreds of years. It's estimated that about 33 billion pounds of plastic goes into the oceans annually, (that's two garbage trucks worth every minute). One of the amazing benefits of both aluminum and glass is that their integrity doesn’t degrade after recycling, so unlike plastic they are both infinitely recyclable. Aluminum in particular is also more durable than plastic because of its lightweight and malleable composition.

        Recycling aluminum requires about 95% less energy than it takes to produce new aluminum. In fact, more than 70% of aluminum ever produced is still being used today.

        Maintaining a minimal carbon footprint will always be a work in progress that we remain dedicated to.
