RAW BRAND

ALL OUR PRODUCTS ARE EITHER REUSABLE OR HOME COMPOSTABLE OR BOTH.

AT RAW WE ARE EXCITED TO LAUNCH THE FIRST PRODUCTS UNDER OUR RAW BRAND – RAW STRAW – BAMBOO, WHEAT AND PAPER DRINKING STRAWS.

We have a passion for people and the natural environment. Our mission is to introduce an alternate range of household and day to day products, for the conscious consumer that is both sustainable and ethical.

The United Nations describes sustainable development as:

Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

SUSTAINABILITY

Being sustainable is at the core of what we do. We are mindful of reducing our impact on the environment. All our products are either reusable or home compostable or both. Our Raw bamboo and wheat straws are all natural, plant-based and made from renewable resources. Our paper straws are sourced from managed plantations. Many of our products are handmade by small family businesses and all are free from plastic and other toxic substances.

Our packaging is made from 100% recycled Post-Consumer Waste (PCW) Recycled Fibre and printed with vegetable-based ink.

ETHICAL

Like sustainability, being ethical is also at the core of what we do. We are respectful when communicating with our suppliers, we pay a fair price and on time. We like to meet our makers and develop positive and lasting relationships. We choose carefully who we partner with and ensure our suppliers meet the highest ethical and sustainable standards. We back up our claims with relevant certifications and product testing. At RAW we support our communities by giving back. A percentage of sales from our RAW products are donated to Australian Marine Conservation Society, Displacement Solutions and Rainforest Rescue.
