The Good Egg
The Good Egg
The Good Egg is a pair of stackable egg cups, and shows that our collective effort to recycle and reuse plastic waste has a real effect.
Cast using post consumer, and industrial waste polypropylene, each pair weighs approximately 40g, about the same as a small egg. With each set, the user can recognise that they have removed about an egg's worth of plastic waste from our environment.
We believe in business as a force for good and donate 1% of profit to a charity or organisation chosen for each product. For The Good Egg, 1% will go to Take 3 For The Sea, a charity dedicated to ocean clean-up and public education.
Sold as a pair, you can choose your favourite colour combination, or let us make one for you.
Colour variation is part of the process and actual stock will always vary from photos shown. If you would like to be more specific with your colour choice, please note it in the comments section and we will do our best to make your dreams come true.
We have produced and developed this using the Precious Plastic knowledge and techniques. Precious plastic is a grassroots plastic recycling community started by Dave Hakkens, that enables designers, makers and creative thinkers to develop and produce products made from recycled consumer and industrial waste plastic.
These egg cups use 100% recycled Polypropylene (PP), indicated by the #5 on the underside of each cup, a plastic that is BPA-free and one of the safest to use in contact with food. The marbled flecks of colour throughout the egg cups are unique to the production process, and hint at the plastic’s previous life. If a time comes when they are no longer of use to you, they can be recycled again, keeping plastic in the loop and out of our environment.
