Zero Waste and Refill Stores: a customer and a provider in a bright, modern setting

Shopping with less packaging in Singapore usually means mixing two kinds of stores: a few that let you scoop or refill into your own containers, and a larger group of eco shops selling reusable swaps such as beeswax wraps, bamboo straws and soap bars. This guide covers both, using each business's own website and shop pages as the source, and says plainly which is which. Browse the entries to see what each one stocks and where, then use the choosing tips below to match a store to your routine, whether you want a physical visit, a workshop, or a delivered parcel.

1. Scoop Wholefoods

Scoop Wholefoods is the closest thing on this list to a classic refill shop. Its story page describes a flagship at Great World with bulk wholefood bins, a DIY nut butter station and a strict no single-use-plastics approach, where customers are encouraged to bring their own bags and glass containers, or buy jars and hessian bags to refill later. The same page says an enclosed workshop lets shoppers make household cleaning and personal care products in refillable packaging. Its online shop also sells jars and organic cleaners. That story reads as a launch-era description, so confirm what your nearest outlet offers before carrying jars across town. LocalRank also covers the shop on its organic grocers guide, but this entry looks only at the refill side.

2. The Green Collective

The Green Collective describes itself as a collective of eco-friendly brands, founded in 2018 and now working with over 300 of them. It runs a shop at Funan and an online store organised by category, including cleaning supplies, laundry, kitchen storage and lunchboxes, tableware, menstrual care, gardening and composting, and personal care. Its about page states that it is a B Corp certified platform, which is the company's own statement rather than something LocalRank has checked. Other zero-waste sellers on this list point to it as a stockist for their products, which makes it a practical single stop if you want to compare several reusable and low-waste brands side by side rather than visit each brand separately.

3. Bamboo Straw Girl

Bamboo Straw Girl is a homegrown social enterprise that began with a single bamboo straw and, according to its about page, now offers a much wider zero-waste range. The site lists reusable takeout items, kitchen and bath essentials, handmade soaps, crystal deodorant, upcycled bags and accessories, and period care products. It says its batik bulk bags and strawkeepers are hand-stitched from fabric scraps, and it calls itself Singapore's first zero-waste lifestyle store. Beyond retail, the site mentions a beeswax wrap workshop, school and corporate programmes and food-and-beverage partners. Its stockists page names The Green Collective as a Singapore retail partner, so you can order online or look for its products in store.

4. Your Sustainable Store

Your Sustainable Store is a Singapore-based online shop started by a founder who says she bought her first beeswax wrap in New Zealand in January 2018, then struggled to find similar products at home. Its FAQ states that it has no physical store or stockists and operates through its website only. The catalogue is organised by bathroom, beauty and skincare, cleaning, kitchen and on-the-go items, and the brand list includes names such as Stasher, Stojo, Ecoffee Cup and Beauty Kubes. The shop notes that it uses minimal plastic when packing orders, and it offers courier delivery within Singapore. It suits shoppers who want reusable swaps delivered rather than a refill counter to visit.

5. Minimakers

Minimakers makes reusable beeswax wraps, a swap for cling film. Its site calls the company Singapore's largest manufacturer of beeswax wraps and lists sizes from mini to extra large plus foldable bag-style wraps, with fabric options that include local designer and organic cotton prints. Shoppers will also find a DIY wrap kit, mending wax, sponge cloths and fire starters. According to its story page, it has worked with the Autism Resource Centre since 2021 to provide jobs for people on the autism spectrum. Besides its own web shop, the site links to a Shopee store and a stockists page, and it offers a corporate gifts route and a WhatsApp line for questions.

6. My Naked Bar

My Naked Bar is a Singapore indie soap brand whose site describes vegan bar soaps handcrafted in Singapore. Its story page says the brand packages bars in rescued milk cartons that community members collect and clean, a way to cut packaging waste while keeping the cartons out of the bin. It also lists a circularity workshop for groups, where participants work with the cartons, and corporate gifting services. The contact page says its studio in Ang Mo Kio can be visited by appointment only. Its partner-stores page names stockists including The Green Collective at Funan, an NUS co-op branch and a Tzu Chi market, so you can buy online or look for the bars at those partners.

How to choose

Start by deciding whether you need true refills or just low-waste swaps. A bulk-bin shop lets you bring jars for dry goods and sometimes home-care products, while reusable-goods shops sell items like wraps, straws and soap bars. Reading each store's own description tells you which model it follows.
Check how containers are handled before you travel. Ask whether the shop weighs empty jars at the till, which sizes it accepts, and whether it sells containers on the spot. Policies can change after a store's launch story was written, so a quick message to the shop avoids a wasted trip.
Look at how an online order will actually arrive. Shops differ in delivery packaging, courier options and minimum order thresholds, and one on this list says it still uses minimal plastic when packing. If packaging matters to you, read the shipping or FAQ page first.
Treat sustainability claims as the shop's own statements. Terms such as B Corp, vegan, organic or zero-waste are descriptions the business publishes about itself. If one matters to your purchase, ask what it covers and look for the supporting detail on the product page.
Match the shop to your routine. A physical refill counter suits regular pantry top-ups near home or work, while online specialists suit one-off swaps, gifts or workshops. Some brands also sell through other stockists, so compare where you can pick items up before paying for delivery.
