Sustainability

Pottery by DINA uses recycled or reused materials as much as possible.

• I have been recycling clay on a small scale at the studio. It is an interesting process which I will probably share sometime down the road. I also use 'new clay' as well.
• Most of my shipping materials are sourced from a company called EcoEnclose. Even the packing tape and mailing labels are sustainable and plastic-free.

 

Other companies I have purchased recycled/sustainable products from:

• Prattplus.com -boxes
• Vistaprint.com -business cards and post cards can be printed on a recycled paper option

The next section is not pottery-related, but another passion for me...orangutans!

Sustainability and ORANGUTANS:

The easiest thing we can all do to help wild orangutans is to use this app when we shop online or go to the store: https://www.cmzoo.org/conservation/orangutans-palm-oil/sustainable-palm-oil-shopping-app/  By supporting companies that commit to using sustainable palm oil we are saving orangutans' rainforest habitat.
