Portfolio Home, the Manchester based home textile supplier, recently announced the launch of its new eco-friendly fabric packaging for its bed linen. The move comes as more consumers aim to reduce their consumption of single use plastic in favor of reusable alternatives. In addition, the bag was specially formulated to be both soil and water resistant and withstand traditional daily wear-and-tear.
"As a society, we are becoming increasingly aware of the horrors of plastic and the impact on our environment and what the change in our packaging represents is exactly what more ethically-minded consumers are demanding from manufacturers – sustainable products in suitable packaging without a heavy price tag" said Paul Callan, Managing Director of Portfolio Home.
