I am in love with these stunning scissors! These 'Meerut Scissors' named after the town they are made in. Every pair is handmade using a unique traditional process from recycled materials. The blades are made from scrap metal salvaged from old railway carriages, cars and buses!
Nkuku UK Warehouse to Plastic Freedom: As of November 2019, all plastic void fill has been removed from our retail deliveries. We have replaced our small boxes with recyclable paper mail bags. This has reduced the amount of void space and reduced the amount of cardboard used in our deliveries. We have made a design change to our retail boxes; this has reduced our use of cardboard by 4 tonnes per year. We are using recycled and recyclable corrugated cardboard., we have also designed the boxes with a stylish print to encourage their reuse. We now have a shredder at our warehouse that shreds any box that is unusable to create packaging material for ongoing deliveries. This material can then be recycled. Recent initiatives include: Replacing bubble wrap with corrugated cardboard Removing polystyrene from ALL packaging by 2021
