About Us
We are a small local business in the Gaeltacht area of Ballymakeera, County Cork providing plastic alternative products. Our philosophy here at Beeswax Wraps is to make small changes – on a big scale. As Anne Marie Bonneau, a leader in the zero-waste movement said “We don’t need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly“. Using this statement as a guide, we can reduce our plastic use in our homes and stop it reaching our oceans and natural environments one little change at a time.
You may of noticed we are also little bit obsessed with bees! So we have a variety of unique and a little bit different bee products such as our Irish wildflower seedbombs and our Beevive kits.
But reducing plastic use is our business. We are so passionate about it that we founded Plastic Free Macroom in 2018 – an initiative to help our local area become sustainable by reducing plastic use such as straws, bottles, takeaway food containers and printer cartridges. We have had successes and are more committed than ever to providing a solution to this major problem. See our Plastic Pollution page to learn more about this.
We know you’ll love Beeswax Wraps as much as we do!
