The 51st Earth Day celebration arrives on April 22nd, and we continue to be reminded the importance of the environmental movement. As citizens of the Earth, we are asked to make choices that will lesson our individual, and collective, footprints on our planet.

Here at HIC — Harold Import Company, we continue to do our part. We know that you care about helping preserve our natural resources and saving our environment because so do we. We also know that you are committed to giving your family the best. That’s why we are proud to have the Beyond Gourmet line of cooking and baking accessories, which are made with 100% unbleached materials, as part of our Family of Brands. Here are a few ways to help you celebrate Earth Day every day.

Beyond Gourmet Unbleached Nut Milk Bag is for straining, draining, sieving and filtering out pulp and skins while allowing liquids to flow through. Made from 100% unbleached polyester knitted fabric, the bags are designed to allow you to easily make silky homemade almond milk and cashew milk without any pulp or bits of debris. Easy to clean, by rinsing, or in the machine.

Beyond Gourmet’s plant-based Compost Bags are OK Compost and Home OK Compost Certified for easily composting food scraps at home. Made from 0.018mm-thick PBAT, PLA, and corn starch, each bag holds up to 3.5 gallons. The bags compost into water and carbon dioxides within 3 months in industrial facilities. Home compost times vary with soil temperature and humidity.

Beyond Gourmet’s Non-Stick Parchment Paper Sheets keep foods from sticking without greasing baking pans or the use of oils. Made in America of natural unbleached paper with nonstick silicone coating for quick release of food, the pre-cut sheets fit standard 13-inch x 18-inch baking sheets.

Beyond Gourmet Produce Bags (set of 5) are sturdy bags with a locking drawstring to keep contents in. The decorative color bands help identify bag size and classify food types. The set of 5 bags includes: 1 small – 8″ tall x 12″ wide 2 medium – 13″ tall x 12″ wide 2 large – 16.25″ tall x 12″ wide Plus 1 reusable storage bag – 8″ x 7″.
