SMEG Sustainable Appliances

Smeg appliances quickly gained popularity in recent years with their quirky retro designs and gorgeous range of colours which add to your kitchen décor. But beyond their exceptional design sense, Smeg is also known for a strong environmental policy and designs that encourage eco-efficiency and sustainability in a range of ways. Their appliances are built with longevity in mind, and many of their products have some of the highest energy-efficiency ratings around. They also offer alternative functionalities so that consumers can personalise their sustainability habits.

Smeg ovens, for example, offer an eco-cooking function. This allows for the oven to take slightly longer to heat up, which saves energy and money in the long term. But if you’re ever in a rush, the oven can still heat up quickly when it needs to! Their ovens also come with an eco-light, where you could switch the internal oven light on whenever you need to check on the food, instead of leaving it on for hours at a time.

Their induction hubs are eco-efficient wonders as well – with pre-sets that allow for adjustments of cooking, heating, or simply keeping your food warm. They also naturally restrict power limits so that you can save on energy bills by using only what you need. Smeg eco-friendly refrigerators even allow one to place it on ‘holiday mode’ switching off whole compartments when you need to be away from home for an extended period of time! They are the perfect appliance for a sustainable kitchen.

Lomi Eco-friendly Composters

Composters might just be an eco-warrior’s best friend. Composting reduces the amount of methane released in landfills and has the added advantage of creating wonderful fertilizer you could use for your garden or even an urban vegetable patch. There are plenty of brands out there with their own versions, but Lomi might be one of the best on the market. It reduces waste at the push of a button and also prevents insects and rodents from getting to your food waste while managing any unappealing smells.

One of the best things about a composter is how quickly it encourages you to reuse the created compost for your own growing spaces, and begins a loop that starts both you and your family on a lifetime path of sustainable food growing.
