Bij Cas offers its customers second-hand, good quality items ranging from small furniture, such as kitchen appliances, to bigger furniture such as couches and wardrobes, to antiques and finally clothing. It is a perfect place to get some inspiration for new looks, as well as upgrading one’s decorations at home.
Why sustainable?
Bij Cas is sustainable because the shop extends the lifespan of many consumer products. In addition, it helps raise awareness about reusing products rather than buying new items. This means fewer resources are used in the end, for example fossil fuels, but also wood and metals.
Climate Action: By switching to second-hand shopping, your money won’t go toward supporting an industry that is characterized by water and air pollution, which in turn has an adverse impact on climate change and its mitigation practices.
Responsible consumption and production: Reusing clothes reduces the need for additional resource use and waste assimilation while maintaining the quality of life. For instance, the new pair of jeans takes roughly 7000 liters of water during the entire production process.
