Great customer service. Fast and quick delivery. When they thought I ordered something wrong they rung me to check and actually helped me switch products for the better.

Singleusealternatives are leading the way, a brilliant UK company that really cares abouts its customers and its ethics. As a company, their customer service is top notch and their ethical responsibility is top notch. I like the company so much, they now supply for my soap business, my packaging. Sustainable Compostables. This company is growing and already there. Great job guys.

Thanks Daniel, we just want to make this as easy and affordable for everyone to switch to compostable alternatives to single use plastics. We've got a much bigger range of sizes of those compostable deli containers, in all shapes too. Adrian
Very positive experience
As a small business it’s great to be able to buy products in multiples of 50 rather than 1000. Easy to use website. Prompt dispatch, delivery and follow-up.

Shona, thats exactly why we setup in 2019. We believe everyone wants to make sustainable choices, especially for single use products, but at the time you had to buy large quantities to even get a decent enough price. With Single Use Alternatives, that is no longer the case, buy 100s rather than 1000s at affordable prices. Adrian
Very helpful
Very helpful, simple site to use, great products ... looking forward to further developments in the product range etc and affordable pricing of course ...

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback Kristiyan, as a new business this is important to us and we are equally disappointed. The product you ordered had seen significant uplift in demand, hence why it had a slightly longer leadtime than our usual next day service, so I was pleased that we actually delivered it to you 3 days earlier than we estimated we would.
On the afternoon we spoke, we explained that the order had already been packed and more than likely collected by the carrier from our warehouse, which we followed up with tracking details as we usually do.
We are always working hard with our customers to ensure they are completely happy with the products we supply and we could have arranged a collection if you so wished.
Amazing service as usual
Amazing service as usual. Thank you!
Adrian is always on hand to make sure I get my stock on time even when I leave ordering till a few days beforehand. There's been a few issues with finding the right product for my bakery but they have been so helpful in sending samples and giving advice where needed.
Looking forward to seeing SUA grow even stronger.
