Jute
Reusable Bags - Maiden Newton Service Station puts the
environment at the heart of its operations because we are
deeply concerned about the loss of habitat, global warming,
and pollution which is affecting the earth. This has
encouraged us to offer our customers Jute Carrier Bags which
are available for only £1.75.
Jute fibre is
a natural, ecologically sound biodegradable fibre. We have
natural jute bags that are uncoloured and retain the natural
appearance of the jute fibre. We also have black dyed jute
bags for a more vibrant look to the jute fibre.
Jute is one of
the strongest of all natural fibres available today, it also
has some heat and fire resistance. It is a long, soft, shiny
vegetable fibre that can be spun into strong threads, the
threads are then turned into material. The biodegradable
features of just are becoming increasingly important to
consumers and manufacturer alike.
