At Go For Zero we believe that sustainability starts where single-use ends. Choosing items that stand the test of time is not just a smart financial decision, it’s a way to reduce waste and cut down on plastic. Yes please!

Forever Essentials are thoughtfully made, durable products you can rely on for a lifetime, supporting a lifestyle that is kinder to the planet and future generations. If you are ready to replace short-lived, single-use items with something truly sustainable, here are our Top 5 Forever Essentials.

1. Stainless Steel Pegs

Rusted pegs? We’ve all had them. And when they snap, we’re never really sure what to do with them. The good news is, you can pass our stainless steel pegs on to the next generation!  Our Aussie-made Go For Zero Stainless Steel Pegs are weather-resistant, rust-proof, and strong enough to hold heavy, wet laundry. Made from 316 marine-grade stainless steel, they are designed to last a lifetime, meaning no more broken plastic pegs littering the planet.They’re also surprisingly versatile: use them to reseal pantry bags, as large paperclips or to secure plant ties in the garden.

2. Stainless Steel Kitchen Utensils

Plastic and heat are not a good combo. We’ve all seen a melted spoon or wobbly handle. Plastic-handled or coated utensils might look fine at first, but over time they can melt, snap, or leach harmful chemicals into your food. Meet our Go For Zero Stainless Steel Kitchen Utensil Set, designed to last a lifetime. Crafted from a single piece of high-quality, 304 food-grade stainless steel, these toxin-free utensils are heat-resistant, dishwasher safe and will last you a lifetime. 

Available as individual pieces or as a set, the soup ladle, slotted spatula, and pasta spoon are ergonomically designed to make cooking a breeze. Using tools that are durable, stylish, and completely plastic-free makes your kitchen not only safer for your family but also kinder to the planet. Once you go stainless steel, you’ll wonder why you ever settled for anything else. Want to know more about why black plastic utensils aren’t the best choice? Check out our blog here.

3. Stainless Steel Lunchware

At Go For Zero, we’re big on keeping plastic far away from your food (and drinks!)Eating lunch or on-the-go doesn’t have to mean single-use plastic.

The stackable bento boxes keep meals fresh and plastic-free, while the insulated drink bottles keep drinks cold for 24 hours or hot for eight.

5. Butterfly Reusable Safety Razor

Plastic disposable razors are one of the worst offenders for landfill waste. Our Butterfly Reusable Safety Razors are a (pretty) durable alternative that will prevent ingrown hairs and save you money in the long run as they last forever with proper care. Suitable for men and women, our reusable razors come with five recyclable blades, each providing multiple smooth, irritation-free shaves.

Choosing products that last forever is about more than durability, it’s also about choosing quality over convenience, health over hidden chemicals, and sustainability over waste. Our Top 5 Forever Essentials are everyday products that make a tangible difference, helping you live a low-waste life without compromising on style or fun. And that is what Go For Zero is about!
