Go Green This Halloween

Halloween is a fantastic, fun time, for the whole family. However, it also leads to a lot of additional waste. In the UK alone, it’s estimated that 2,000 tonnes of plastic waste are generated each year from throwaway Halloween costumes. On top of this there’s the sweet wrappers, plastic pumpkin containers and toys which all end up as rubbish instead of house clutter.

At Tinware, we’re eager to help ensure that the spookiest time of year is also one of the greenest. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of how your customers can reuse our packaging in wonderful ways during the season of the witch.

Cardboard Tube Trick or Treat Containers

A key staple of Halloween is trick or treat. Cardboard tube packaging is the perfect, sustainable choice for treats and sweet carriers when children are going door to door. All you need to do is poke two small holes in the top of the tubes for string that kids can use as handles. The tubes also come with tight lids, ensuring there’s no chance of sweets falling out. You can also easily decorate these tubes with Halloween stickers or paint them eerie colours such as lime screen of ghostly white.

Halloween Party Metal Tins

Perhaps your customers are throwing their own Halloween party? If so, then they could use empty metal tin packaging as sweet holders. Again, customers can redecorate these tins with spooky designs. Or, simply leave them with their original design for a contemporary, classy, party theme.

Metal & Cardboard Packaging Arts & Crafts

For customers with children, there are many ways to use packaging for Halloween themed arts and crafts. Here are a couple ideas.

Spooky Tin Lanterns

If you use metal tin packaging for your products, your customers could transform these into spooky lanterns. They can use a sharp knife to cut holes in the tin to make faces. Our white tins are fantastic for creating ghostly lanterns. Add a small tea light inside the tin to light it up throughout the evening.

Bottle Monsters

Alternatively, you might be using our aluminium bottle packaging for your drinks, or cleaning products. Your customers can transform these into funny ghosts or lanterns. All they need is some googly eyes and a pen to make a face as well as some spare fabric to create either a cape or flailing arms.

As you can see, there are a wonderful array of choices that your customers can explore when reusing metal or cardboard packaging each Halloween. Doing this provides charming and delightful opportunities for creativity while helping to reduce high levels of waste. As well as helping save the planet, it also ensures your customers can save money on new Halloween decorations and accessories. each year.

Share these ideas with your customers to highlight a unique benefit of your sustainable packaging selection.
