For anyone who grew up in the early 90’s or earlier, the gentle clinking of glass bottles down your street would be memory that has now been forgotten about – but now it is back. Over the last year, Totally Welsh has noticed a huge increase in customers ordering milk and other drinks in the form glass bottles.
Since the viewing of David Attenborough’s BBC series Blue Planet II, which aired in 2018 and the media currently raising awareness of plastic pollution, we have noticed that the demand for glass has dramatically increased.
Glass bottles now make up roughly 84% of milk deliveries to our door step customers within the Swansea and Cardiff area but currently 95% of our new customers opt for glass bottles instead of plastic and that is a trend that we expect to continue with our milk deliveries.
