BPA Free grinders for spices and salts!

Our grinders do not contain bisphenol A to ensure the health of consumers!

As manufacturers of grinders for salts and spices, we want to assure you that all of our products are BPA free.

It is important to note that bisphenol A is a chemical used in the manufacturing of some plastics, including polycarbonate. For this reason, for several years, QIUB Packaging, SA is not using polycarbonate (PC) in the manufacturing of grinders for spices and salts. This material (PC) was eliminated to ensure the production of products without bisphenol A.

Bisphenol A in food poses a health risk

This substance has been controversial due to its possible negative effects on health. In fact, recently, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) published a report highlighting the health problems associated with bisphenol A. According to the report, this substance could have negative effects on the reproductive system, thyroid, and nervous system, among others.

As a company committed to the health and well-being of our customers, at QIUB we consider it essential to ensure that our products are safe and free from any substance that may have negative effects on health. That is why we ensure that our grinders are made with safe materials and are free from bisphenol A.

At QIUB Packaging, SA we remain committed to the manufacture of high-quality and safe products for all of our customers. And you, are you using BPA free grinders?

RECYCLING IS GIVING A NEW LIFE.

PET bottles are one of the most common types of waste on our planet. Let’s give it a new life.

Recycling PET bottles is important because it helps reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, rivers, and oceans. This recycled PET material can be used to manufacture new products, such as clothing, carpets, bottles and…, thanks to the technology developed by QIUB, also grinders for salts and spices.

The use of grinders made from recycled materials gives value to waste by generating a real demand for this material. This encourages more and more companies and governments to focus on the collection and treatment of PET bottles, to value this waste and give it a new life, without the resulting product being excessively expensive (find out how to deal with inflation and stay sustainable).

QIUB PACKAGING REDUCES AND VERIFIES ITS CARBON FOOTPRINT

At QIUB Packaging SA we continue to demonstrate our strong commitment to sustainability and the fight against climate change.

We’re pleased to announce that here at QIUB, in line with our strong commitment to sustainability and the fight against climate change, we have reduced and verified our carbon footprint in accordance with UNE EN ISO 14064-3:2019. In this manner we have become one of the first Spanish companies to voluntarily record our calculation of greenhouse gases in the National Registry of Carbon Footprint (RD 163/2014)

As packaging manufacturers, this enables us to consolidate our leading position in the manufacture of sustainable grinders for packaging salts and spices. We have proved our commitment and good practice by obtaining verification of the calculation and reduction of the carbon footprint linked to our manufacturing activity from 2018 onwards under the UNE EN ISO 14064-3:2019 standard.

WE ARE REDUCING OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT

At QIUB we have reduced our carbon footprint by -0.55% in the emissions ratio, despite having increased our turnover for packaging items by around +75% between 2018 and 2021, in the same period. This milestone has been achieved as a result of modernising most of the grinders in our range, moving towards using more sustainable materials such as PET instead of other materials such as PC, ABS and POM.

World Recycling Day

World Recycling Day is traditionally celebrated on May 17. This date, established by UNESCO, is an ideal day to try to make us all aware of our consumption habits.

Therefore, it is a day to focus on the origin of what we consume, but also on the waste generated by the consumption of human activity. Something that is becoming increasingly important in consumers’ purchasing decisions: What is the origin of what we buy? What will happen to the waste of what I am buying?

At QIUB we are aware of the importance of creating sustainable packaging. For this reason, when we develop new products, we do it thinking about their design, quality, and functionality, but above all in their sustainability. As a result of this eagerness to offer sustainable packaging, in 2020 Qiub Packaging launched the first salt and spice grinder made of 100% sustainable materials such as PET and r-PET, being the first company in the world to achieve this milestone.
