How to achieve a sustainable supermarket is the big question being asked by many companies. Thanks to the design and innovation of Carttec products this is possible.
Incorporating high-quality shopping baskets contributes to a reduction in plastic consumption. In addition, there are also eco-friendly baskets, a solution that we will talk about today.
Plastic, the main obstacle to a sustainable supermarket
The amount of plastic consumed in any retail environment is very high. The problem has grown so much that we have even developed a certain aversion to this material, which is very beneficial in other aspects.
If the baskets used by a supermarket are not of high quality design and manufacture, they are likely to deteriorate and break too quickly. This means a higher consumption of plastic and energy to produce them as they have to be replaced by other ones.
It is therefore essential to develop a type of basket that solves this problem, and at Carttec we have succeeded in doing so.
Sustainable retail is a reality
Sustainable retail design is not a fad, it is a strategy for caring for the environment and long-term success in today’s market. Consumers and brands are changing the way we understand commerce and the way we form part of it.
When a company adopts sustainable practices:
- It improves its image
- It aligns with consumer expectations
- It contributes to a responsible future
In addition to making significant savings, by opting for sturdy, high quality shopping baskets, they last longer and unnecessary consumption is eliminated.
There are different models of eco-friendly shopping baskets: B28, B65 and B90. On this occasion, we will talk about the B65 Eco Basket model.
B65 Eco Basket, an eco-friendly supermarket basket
Certified by Blue Angel, the world’s most recognised certification in this field, the B65 Eco Basket is made from post-consumer recycled materials.
This basket has the following features:
- Fixed rear wheels and silent pivoting front wheels when rolling

It is the perfect basket to facilitate the shopping process on the sales floor and take care of the environment at the same time, but it is not the only one.
