Iceland becomes first UK supermarket to launch plastic-free reusable woven bags
Iceland Foods has become the first UK supermarket in the UK to launch plastic-free reusable woven bags, expanding its alternatives to traditional plastic bags.
The new reusable bags are a combination of paper and cotton instead of plastic. According to the frozen-food retailer the reusable bag has been designed to match the performance of existing woven bags.
The bags will be launched in all stores across the country and will retail as £1 each alongside sustainably sourced reusable and recyclable paper bags (30p) and insulated freezer bags (£1.50).
