40% Reduction
"Supermarkets are very enthusiastic", says Ido. "These machines ensure that 40% less bags are used. Many customers are used to packing a number of bags. This is just what they have been used to. Now that excess has stopped. There are different pilot schemes, among others at Walmart. These were financed by the British Government in order to reduce the use of plastic bags. We were first particularly in Israel, but now we have plans to install the machine in Spain, Turkey, Russia and the US. We are focused now on the global market and are searching for distributors. We recently took the 'Grab-a-bag' to the Warsaw World-Food exhibition to reach the Polish market. There was also a lot of interest shown here."
More and more organisations recognise that they want to be more sustainable. By reducing the use of plastic bags, 'Grab-a-bag' is an important contribution to the environmental friendliness of an organisation", concludes Ido.
