HALM Less  Waste Weihnachtsaktion Gewinnspiel Nachhaltige Geschenkideen Glas Strohhalme

ZERO WASTE GIFT GUIDE:
SUSTAINABLE GIFT IDEAS

Christmas gifts are a beautiful and widely loved tradition. Giving something from the heart that brings joy to another person is a wonderful feeling! But all too often, Christmas can also turn into a big shopping frenzy that is neither good for us nor good for the environment.

That’s why we’re sharing meaningful, innovative, and sustainable gift ideas, that are a loving gesture for friends and family while also doing some good.

We’re also playing Santa ourselves and giving away a set that contains ALL of our eco-friendly gift ideas!

1. REUSABLE GLASS STRAWS

A must-have under every sustainable Christmas tree: Glass drinking straws by HALM prevent unnecessary single-use plastic in your favorite drink and are a timeless gift idea. Paired with the matching storage case made from organic cotton, they become practical helpers you can always take with you.

To suit the season, the straws come engraved with festive motifs and sayings.

2. SUSTAINABLE BATHROOM ESSENTIALS

Cosmetics, hygiene, and beauty products are always a good gift idea. But of course, sustainability matters here too!

In the gift box from Hydrophil, you’ll find a natural cosmetic soap, a bamboo toothbrush with a toothbrush holder, a sisal soap bag, and nourishing lip balm.

A clean idea for the bathroom or on the go!

3. LUNCH BOXES FOR LUNCH ON THE GO

In the past, we always had our packed lunch with us, so why do we so often reach for quick meals wrapped in plastic today?

The TiffinDouble Lunchbox from ECO Brotbox is a great gift and helps make it easier to take a homemade lunch to the office in the future. Whether it’s a sandwich, porridge, or leftovers from dinner, there’s plenty of room here.

4. SHOPPING BAGS MADE FROM ORGANIC COTTON

Even small steps can make a big difference. A thoughtful gesture, but also effective for the environment long after Christmas, are the shopping bags made from GOTS-certified organic cotton by ECO Brotbox.

Giving them means fruit and vegetables at the supermarket no longer end up in thin plastic bags. The bags are also great for shopping at package-free stores or at the market!

5. COFFEE CUPS FOR ON THE GO

Paper and plastic coffee cups are often empty within minutes and end up in the trash. A reusable option belongs in every household, especially if you’re often on the move.

The Weducer Cup from Kaffeeform is also made from recycled coffee grounds and is the ideal companion for the conscious, design-minded coffee lover.

6. SUSTAINABLE CUPS FOR HOME

A treat for home is also a great gift idea. The Cappuccino cups made from recycled coffee grounds by Kaffeeform are stylish and a sustainable gesture at the same time.

Tip: Buy Fair Trade coffee beans at the package-free store or even bake some delicious treats for coffee break yourself and give them together!

7. FAIR FASHION COZY SWEATER

Clothing ends up under many Christmas trees, but the fast fashion industry is a major burden on both the environment and people.

A great idea is therefore carefully selected clothing made under fair conditions, such as the stylish and vegan Climate Change Sweater from Original Unverpackt. The sweater is unisex and made from 85% combed ringspun organic cotton and 15% recycled polyester.

8. DIY KITS TO MAKE YOURSELF

We love innovative gifts you can make yourself! What’s especially clever about the D.I.Y. cleaning kit from Original Unverpackt: all the ingredients needed are already packed together in one box.

That way, household remedies can be made at home without any chemical additives, and you know for sure what’s inside.

9. BEESWAX WRAPS FOR FOOD

Cling film and aluminum foil, which end up in the trash after only a short use, are no longer needed in the kitchen thanks to practical beeswax wraps from Wildwax.

The reusable, handmade wraps keep food fresh for a long time, are ideal for wrapping bread and snacks to take on the go, or make the perfect cover for leftovers in the fridge.

10. SAVED FRUIT AND VEGETABLES STRAIGHT FROM THE FIELD TO HOME

We love innovative and meaningful gift ideas: so why not surprise someone this year with rescue boxes full of vegetables and fruit?

The Smoothiebox from etetpetete is packed with fresh fruit and superfoods that bring plenty of vitamins into the home, especially in the colder months, and blended, are perfect to enjoy with HALM drinking straw.

We’re looking forward to a sustainable Christmas and hope you liked our eco-friendly gift ideas.
