Blades with the most environmentally friendly packaging

[pedrofernandez]

Hiya,

Can anyone tell me what blades have the least packaging, or the packaging with the least amount of plastic (preferably none)?

Is there even such a thing?

I'm new to DE shaving and have assumed the blades will be recyclable, if I can find a recycling and reuse centre that will take them, but would like to reduce the packing waste too if possible

Plenty of blades come sans plastic.

Astras, rapiras, bolzanos etc.

Avoid feathers and Derby's. Lots of plastic.

Get a metal used tin, when full just recycle the lot. I use a metal mustard powder tin.

Plastic pucks go in plastic box
Cardboard pucks go in cardboard/paper box
Blades in a tin

Everything recyclable

Great! Well that was more straightforward than I imagined!

Thanks everyone!

Derby, Feather & Wilkinson all use plastic.

And to confuse matters there are some Astras that use plastic as well!
