Plastic bags adé!

The drugstore chain dm dares a step for the environment: The free plastic bags are to be banned from the shops!

Everyone knows the little plastic bags at the bottom of the cash register, which almost scream for being used - even if you do not actually need them. After all, they are in vain and so quickly accumulate up to 200 plastic bags per capita per year. The environment is hardly thought here.

Not anymore! The annual consumption of EU citizens should be reduced from 200 to 45 plastic bags by 2019. dm is now responding to the objectives of the EU Commission. Plastic bags should be banned from stores, offering customers eco-friendly alternatives.

No to plastic bags. Yes to environmental protection.

The drugstore chain sets a good example and deals with the topic of environmental protection. Branch managers can decide in future even on the offer of free plastic bags, which should be banned nationwide from the range.

Already at the end of last year, the drugstore Budni in Hamburg decided to completely renounce the tear-off plastic bags. For the customers the actions meet with a positive response.
