1. Glass straws
Perfect for every cocktail, long drink or even iced coffee fan: glass straws . Because glass straws are not only significantly more sustainable than plastic or metal straws, but they also look super chic!
2. Reusable glass drinking bottle
A reusable glass drinking bottle from Soulbottle is the perfect sustainable gift! The bottles are 100% climate neutral, 100% Made in Germany and, on top of that, 100% plastic-free.

Since there is a huge selection of different designs, there is something for everyone.
3. Reusable stainless steel water bottle
Klean Kanteen's drinking bottles are made of sustainably harvested bamboo, food-safe silicone, stainless steel and are completely plastic-free. In addition, the company donates 1 percent of its sales to environmental protection.

5. Have trees planted
Are you looking for a very unusual ecological gift? Then we have a particularly sustainable gift idea here - if not one of the most sustainable gifts. How about having trees planted in another country? At Primaklima you can easily select the number of trees to plant and the associated project in which they should be planted and you are helping to give some nature back to the planet. And so that you physically have something to give away, there is a certificate included.
6. Plastic-free and sustainable bathroom set
Ultra Green not only offers a hair care set, but also an extensive zero waste set for the bathroom . It comes with a sustainable bamboo toothbrush from Hydrophil, a handmade hair soap from Golconda (free from artificial substances and synthetic additives), a vegan and handmade lemongrass soap for body and hair, as well as cotton swabs made from organically grown bamboo and cotton. This all-round set is the perfect gift for replacing several bathroom products in one fell swoop with more sustainable alternatives.

8. 4ocean bracelet made from recycled materials
Anyone who considers a bracelet from 4ocean as a gift is not only doing something good for the recipient, but also for the environment. For each 4ocean bracelet, half a kilo of trash and plastic is fished out of the oceans and used to make the bracelet. The band is made from recycled plastic and the beads are made from recycled glass bottles.
