At Ekopura, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. That's why we have chosen to remove the plastic measuring spoons from our protein powder packaging. In this article, we explain why this move makes sense within our mission, what it means for you as a customer, and how you can still easily dose your protein powder.
Why are we discontinuing plastic measuring spoons?
Although our plastic scoops were recyclable, in practice they often ended up in the garbage. This does not fit with our core values: quality, sustainability and taking responsibility for our impact on the environment. By removing the plastic scoop from the packaging, we save thousands of pieces of disposable plastic every year. A small step with a big collective impact.
Sustainable alternative: a reusable stainless steel measuring spoon
To still offer you the convenience of a measuring spoon, we have developed a premium stainless steel measuring spoon that fits our protein powders perfectly:
-
Stainless steel: strong, hygienic and endlessly reusable
-
Good dosage: matched to our standard 25-gram serving (see instructions)
-
Stylish design: with Ekopura engraving and a robust look
Free with the purchase of two bags or more
The stainless steel measuring spoon is available separately in our webshop for €2. But we want to reward sustainable choices: if you order two bags of protein powder or more, you get the measuring spoon for free. This way we stimulate recycling in an accessible way.
What will change for you?
Your next order will no longer have a plastic scoop in the package. Do you already have one at home? Then you can continue to use it. Don't have a scoop yet or want to switch to the sustainable version? Then add the stainless steel measuring scoop to your shopping cart via the pop-up.
Our mission: only the best for body and nature, without unnecessary burden on the planet
As a brand, we want to contribute to a world where healthy food and sustainability go hand in hand. The choice to stop using plastic scoops is in line with our broader strategy: natural ingredients, sustainable packaging and transparency in everything we do.
Thank you for joining us in choosing to reduce waste and increase recycling.
Have questions or feedback about this change? Please let us know. Together we'll make a difference.
