The story behind
At Boring Basics, we make everyday eco swaps effortless — without the greenwashing or the guilt.
We’re a small, UK-based business on a mission to help households ditch plastic for good. From eco-friendly biodegradable phone cases to eco-friendly cling film, our products are designed to do one thing well: replace everyday waste with simple, sustainable basics.
We know sustainable shopping is often full of jargon, complicated materials, and overpriced gimmicks. That’s not us. We keep it clean, clear, and compostable — no filler, just planet-friendly essentials that actually break down.
Every product on our site meets real environmental standards like EN13432 and TÜV Austria Home Compost Certification, so you know they’re truly biodegradable — not just buzzword-deep.
We’re not here to reinvent the bin liner. Just make sure yours doesn’t outlive your great-grandchildren.
Full transparency on materials, sourcing, and disposal
We’re upfront about what’s inside, where it comes from, and how to dispose of it. No greenwashing, no guesswork.
Ships from the UK with minimal carbon miles
All orders ship from the UK to keep carbon miles low. Local, faster, greener.
Packaging made from FSC-certified or recycled sources
We use packaging that comes from responsibly managed forests or recycled materials. A big impact on reducing deforestation and waste.
Meets UK compostability and recyclability standards
Our products meet strict UK standards, so they safely break down or can be recycled. No landfill or ocean waste.
