Designed by people who love to cook-and who know that delicious food depends on a healthy planet-Preserve offers durable, fun, dishwasher-safe products for your kitchen. Since 1996, Preserve has been making stylish, high performance, eco-friendly products that help preserve the earth, one home at a time. Preserve believes that choosing eco-friendly products doesn't mean having to sacrifice quality, price, or performance. Made from 100% recycled plastics and 100% post-consumer recycled paper, Preserve reuses Earth's precious resources and turns them back into products that people want.

By using recycled materials, Preserve saves energy, preserves natural resources and creates an incentive for communities to recycle. All of the plastic products are recyclable, either through Preserve's own postage-paid labels and mailers or at the curb in communities that recycle #5 plastic and the products are made in the USA so they can be shipped shorter distances, using less fuel and limiting the environmental footprint. Preserve plastic requires: At least 54% less water than virgin polypropylene; At least 64% less greenhouse gases (in CO2 equivalents) than virgin polypropylene; At least 75% less oil than virgin polypropylene; At least 48% less coal than virgin polypropylene; At least 77% less natural gas than virgin polypropylene; At least 46% less electricity than virgin polypropylene.
