New Zealand’s Best Sustainable Straws, Pete’s Natural has found them.
Our customers love Pete’s sodas. Some sip straight from the bottle, some pour it into a glass, and plenty enjoy it with a straw. That got us thinking… if straws are part of the experience, let’s make them better for people and the planet. So we went searching for New Zealand’s Best Sustainable Straws
Plastic was never an option. Paper straws? Soggy, flimsy, and a let-down. We wanted something that worked and felt good to use. That’s when we came across Maanihera, the founder of The Wild Straw.
A Straw That Stands Up – NZs Best Sustainable Straws
On his travels overseas, Maanihera tried pasta straws in Zurich. They worked, they lasted, and they didn’t turn to mush. Back in New Zealand, he took that spark of an idea and created The Wild Straw. Made from vegetable flours, these straws stay strong until the last sip, then head straight to the compost when you’re done.
What made us excited wasn’t just the clever design, it was the purpose behind it. The Wild Straw is built on caring for the environment, finding balance, and bringing people together. That matches everything we believe in at Pete’s: real fruit, real flavour, real change. We had found New Zealand’s Best Sustainable Straws
