Plant Based Chewing Gum
Regular price € 4,50OH MY GUM! is super tasty, plant-based and plastic-free chewing gum made with vegan-friendly ingredients and amazing natural flavours (mint and cinnamon). OH MY GUM! is more than just chewing gum: it is a fashion must-have to make a statement. Trendy, stylish and fashionable. Such an easy and chic eco-friendly swap!
Did you know that regular gum is made of plastic? The same kind of plastic used to make tyres and glue and we have been cluelessly chewing on it for years. That’s why standard gum sticks onto our streets for years : it is made of plastic so it does not break down.
OH MY GUM! is made with natural chicle (tree sap from the sapodilla tree in Mexico) and chicle is what chewing gum was originally made of. That’s why OH MY GUM! is biodegradable and planet-friendly. The chewing gum is made with natural and zero-waste ingredients and is vegan-friendly: a perfect plant-based and healthy alternative.
The gum is packaged in plastic-free and recyclable bag-friendly boxes designed to minimise waste. Zero spills = Zero Waste. When developing the packaging, the average size of handbags and backpacks has been taken into account and therefore the boxes are not too big.

Xylitol, Natural Chicle Gum Base, Natural Flavour (Mint), Glycerol, Magnesium Stearate, Gum Arabic, Carnuba Wax

Natural Chewing Gum
Regular price € 5,50The natural chewing gum from Georganics is plastic-free! Yes, you read that correctly. Many people unknowingly chew on plastic. Chewing gum today is often made from synthetic rubber, or oil-based polymers. Chewing gum therefore contains ingredients that are not naturally degradable or recyclable.
Georganics chewing gum is compostable and therefore better for our planet! It is made from Chicle & Arabic Gum from the Sapodilla & Acacia tree and flavoured with Peppermint & Xylitol for a wonderfully cool, refreshing feeling.
The gum gives fresh breath and removes food particles and bacteria that can cause bad breath and tooth decay. Chewing gum generates saliva to rinse the mouth and flush out bacteria. This protects the teeth from bacterial acid that causes rot.
How to use
Take a gum after a meal and chew it for up to 20 minutes. Dispose of the gum in the green container or on the compost heap.
Packaging
The chewing gum comes in a glass jar that you can refill with the Chewing Gum Refill from Georganics.

Georganics was born as a result of Alex trying many high fluoride products in a bid to rid his unexplainable cavities, only to find they didn’t work. A change to his diet was the next option. A couple of months in, Alex decided it wasn’t just the his diet he needed to change, but also the products he was using; soaps, creams, deodorants…everything. He found natural alternatives for most things but struggled to find a good natural toothpaste. Not one to give up, Alex made his own, left his job in the city and launched Georganics.
Georganics only uses pure, natural and organic ingredients for all of their products. The ingredients are sourced as locally as possible. The packaging is specifically designed to produce no waste to avoid clogging up landfill sites.This way, you can take care of your oral hygiene safe and do well by the planet.

Tea - No 1. Organic Ginger-Lemon
Regular price € 4,95This organic ginger-lemon herbal blend from 9teas has a refreshing taste of lemongrass combined with the spicy taste of ginger and a hint of mint. This herbal blend does not contain caffeine and is therefore perfect to drink in the evening.
The tea is a loose leaf tea. Because of the loose tea leaves, your cup of tea has more flavour and at the same time you produce less waste.
Tea Plantations
The quality of the working conditions on the tea plantations is just as important to 9teas as the quality of the tea. Fair wages, a safe working place, normal working hours and a ban on child labour are unfortunately not always enforced in the tea industry. That is why 9teas buys its teas through a cooperative that monitors the working conditions on site so that they can assure fair working conditions for the employees. The cooperative is Fairtrade, UTZ and Rainforest Alliance certified, but does not by definition exclude farmers without, for example, a Fairtrade certificate. The reason for this is that only a small percentage of the farmers is able to afford the costs for such a certificate while they do grow their tea sustainably.
Packaging
The packaging is completely recyclable and plastic-free! The tea comes in a glass jar with an aluminium lid, both materials are recyclable. In addition, the labels consist of natural materials that are extracted from renewable sources as much as possible. The labels are fully industrial compostable and can therefore be put in the glass container together with the jar! Even more fun than recycling the jars is to give them a second life by reusing them as food cans or for a candle or a plant.

Because of her addiction to tea, Tessa founded 9teas. Tessa believes that loose leaf tea does not only taste best, it is also better for our planet. She has always been bothered by the amount of waste produced for a cup of tea. Much of that waste and plastic ends up in the natural environment! She started 9teas thinking: 'things can and must be improved'.
9teas only sells loose leaf tea and you can taste the difference. Fortunately, loose leaf tea is becoming increasingly popular, however many people still opt for the convenience of a prepackaged (plastic) tea bag and that's a shame. Because in addition to the fact that a tea bag contributes to the waste problem and often consists of billions of microplastics, a lot of flavour is lost when tea leaves are grounded into the fine powder that is in a tea bag. Did you know that some tea bags not only contain plastic but are also bleached? 9teas changes this: more tea, less waste!
