We are frank about sustainability

We started with a simple, honest approach to sustainability - to stop single-use plastic waste by reimagining reusable cups and bottles. To do this, we only create beautifully-designed, premium reusable products that you’ll love to use and reuse, over and over again.

Recycled Materials

We see protecting the environment as part of our core values. Reducing the impact of our business on the environment is incredibly important to us. That’s why we continue to increase the use of recycled and upcycled materials where possible. At present, frank green products are made with 90% recycled stainless steel.

Our reusable bags are proudly made from 100% ECORPET® recycled single-use plastic bottles.

Our Pet Collection includes a variety of biodegradable and recycled materials, such as recycled co-polymer, compostable corn starch, and ECORPET® fabric. Here's a fun fact: our frank green Pet Bandanas are crafted with innovative ECORPET® fabric, diverting approximately six single-use PET bottles from landfills.

Our multi-award-winning products are beautiful, functional and great for the planet. We want to empower people to make simple, sustainable choices every day. Together, we can move towards a better, greener future. And to be frank, we need to.

We care deeply about contributing positively to our world and it’s this mindset that guides every decision we make. We envision a world where sustainable living is irresistible.

Made For Everyday

We reduce the amount of waste from our products as much as we can and this approach guides our product design process. We also think carefully about what parts and accessories will help extend the life of your reusable and ensure you reuse them again and again.

All our lids are designed to be used with all of our reusable bottles and cups so you can mix and match your reusable. Our Bottle Bumper Guard is designed to protect your reusable from dings and little scratches. Plus, there's a designated slot for your Apple AirTag® or Tile®, so you’ll never leave your bottle behind again. The Car Cup Holder Expander is designed to easily transport reusable bottles in your vehicle so you’re hydrated on the go.

We produce only premium high-quality product to ensure that they are made to last. We always prioritise repair over replacement in an effort to ensure your reusable is right for life.

Mindful Packaging

We are committed to reducing our waste and this extends to our packaging. We’re mindful of reducing unnecessary packaging and increasing the amount of recycled materials wherever possible. We take great care to use packaging that can be reused and recycled. Our gift boxes are designed to be reused over and over again; just like our reusable bottles!

100% of our product packaging is recyclable and is produced using PEFC certified paper. Our packaging is also specially designed to minimise waste while ensuring your frank green products arrive safely.

Ethical Sourcing

We are a proudly Australian owned and operated company. We design our products in Australia and they are made responsibly in Australia and China. We believe in building long-lasting and mutually beneficial relationships with our trusted partners. So together we can meet our environmental and social responsibilities. Our manufacturing partners are independently audited to ensure people and environmental standards are maintained and adhere to our code of conduct.

We work closely with our supplier partners to manufacture our products with a focus on minimising our impact on the environment. Together, we carefully balance consumer demand to avoid overproduction and ultimately produce unnecessary waste.

Circularity

We’re serious about circularity. That’s why we recycle and refurbish product that is unsuitable for sale. What can’t be repaired is recycled by our supplier partners.

Through Sip Cycle™️, we’re taking circularity one step further - because true sustainability isn’t just about reducing waste, it’s about having a serious think about what useful things that waste can become. By recycling and repurposing old reusable bottles into new lifestyle products and accessories, we’re giving materials a second life, all while making it even easier for you to make a positive impact.

The best part? We’re opening our doors to everyone. Whether your bottle is frank green or another brand (no judgement here), you can drop it off at our Chadstone store and be part of the change. With Sip Cycle™️, sustainability doesn’t stop at first use - it’s a journey that keeps going and going and going, one sip at a time.

frank green isn’t a person, it’s a philosophy.

And to be frank, we need to

The frank green origin story

frank green was officially born in 2013... but the idea for it has been around since the 90s. Our founder, Benjamin Young, used to play down by the river near his house every afternoon, fishing, skipping stones and feeling like huckleberry finn. But whenever it rained, Ben’s paradise was ruined, as thousands of plastic water bottles and cups came pouring down the river and onto the beach. He was shocked when he learned that every single piece of plastic ever made still exists today. He knew it would continue to ruin special places like his river — unless we stop making it.

Fast forward 20 years and Ben was working as an executive, overseeing some of Australia’s largest mergers, when he realised something: he was now in a position to do something about the problem that had bugged him since childhood. He could use his years of devising and implementing business strategies to help solve the plastic crisis. And he was going to start by inventing a reusable coffee cup.

When he told his colleagues about his idea, they told him he was dreaming. They said nobody would ever use it because disposable was too convenient. Proving them wrong became Ben’s number one goal for the next three years. He knew that if he could create something that looked beautiful and desirable, that created a better drinking experience for the consumer, that would save cafes money and that could be popped in a bag and washed once at home — he knew people would choose it over a disposable cup.  

 His design was steeped in research, meticulously refined and in the end, multi-award-winning. Our iconic reusable cups and bottles are now sold around the world and are beloved by millions. And Ben’s obsession to stop the use and manufacture of all single-use plastic products has only grown. 

Today, frank green exists to create sustainable solutions to the single-use plastic problem. We make beautifully designed and innovative products that people love to use, over and over and over again. 

Because all kids deserve to feel like huckleberry finn. By using frank green products, we will create a future where they can.
