Plastic-free living
At Norgesglasset, we believe in products that last
When Norgesglasset was introduced in 1902, it was designed to help preserve food for later. Today, the same basic idea is still relevant: look after what you have, use your things for a long time, and choose solutions that work in everyday life.
Plastic has many useful and necessary applications. The goal isn't a life entirely without plastic – but bringing awareness to where reusable options could be an easy choice.
Three small choices for everyday life
Start the day with glass
Breakfast in a jar is easy to prep ahead. Fill a Norgesglass jar with yoghurt, granola, chia pudding or another favourite, pop it in the fridge, and take it out when you need it. The same jar can be washed and filled again for tomorrow's breakfast.
Bring order to the cupboard
Rice, pasta, nuts, oats and other dry goods store well in glass. You can see what you have, keep better track of your cupboard, and top up as jars run empty.
Take good habits with you
Fill a Norgesflaske bottle with water or a homemade drink, or bring breakfast and lunch in a Norgesglass jar. Reusable containers make it easy to bring food and drink from home – to work, the park, or the cabin.
Good choices start with knowledge
What's the real difference between storing food in glass and in plastic? And what do we actually mean by microplastics? Here, we've gathered knowledge about glass, plastic and food storage – so it's easier to choose what fits your own everyday life.
Glass or plastic?
Glass and plastic each have their own properties and uses. Learn why glass is well suited to storing food and drink – from taste and cleaning to reuse and durability.
Microplastics
What are microplastics, where do they come from, and why has the topic gained so much attention? We look at what the research says – and what we still don't know.
Why we love glass
Reusable, again and again
A good jar can take on many roles over its lifetime, and be filled with something new as your needs change.
Easy to keep clean
Glass has a smooth surface that's easy to clean between uses.
You can see what you have
Clear glass gives you a good overview of the food in your fridge and cupboards.
For food and drink alike
From dry goods and leftovers to homemade jam, juice and water.
Fill your jar with something homemade
A more plastic-free everyday life is also about what we fill our jars with. Make jam from seasonal berries, juice from fruit and vegetables, or prep breakfast for the next morning.
In our recipe universe, you'll find simple recipes and inspiration for making, storing and serving food and drink with Norgesglasset.
Choose products that last
You don't need to replace everything you own. But when you do need something new, it can be worth choosing products that serve many purposes and last for a long time.

Small choices can last a long time
A more mindful everyday life isn't built in a day. Maybe it starts with breakfast prepped the night before, a bottle you refill, or a few Norgesglass jars that find a permanent place in your cupboard.
Small choices, repeated often, can become good habits that last.
