At Oskaya, we believe that the container holding your superfood is just as important as the superfood itself.

That’s why we’ve gone all-in on Miron glass for our Sea Moss Powder. These jars not only enhance the shelf life of our products but do so without relying on harmful preservatives. We’re so obsessed that we had to dedicate an entire blog post just to gush about why it’s the VIP of storage jars.

WHAT IS MIRON GLASS?

Miron glass, often referred to as “violet glass”, is not your average storage solution. To say the least. This premium glass has a rich history, dating back to ancient Egypt, where it was used to preserve precious oils, balms and essences.

The magic of Miron glass lies in its unique ability to protect contents from the harmful effects of light, while simultaneously enhancing their potency.

Unlike regular glass, which is typically clear or amber, Miron glass is a deep violet colour. This isn’t just an aesthetic choice, the colour is key to its functionality. The glass acts as a natural filter, blocking the full spectrum of visible light except for violet, ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) light.

But, let's be honest – the rich purple colour is gorgeous.

Wait – why does blocking out light matter?

Light exposure is one of the leading causes of nutrient degradation in food and supplements. When exposed to visible light, nutrients begin to break down, losing their potency and effectiveness over time.

Miron glass only allows violet, UV and IR light to penetrate. These specific wavelengths of light have been shown to support and even enhance the vitality of the stored contents. UV light has antimicrobial properties, which helps in keeping the product fresher for longer. Meanwhile, violet light has been linked to preserving bio-energy, which means that the contents inside remain vibrant and potent.

As soon as our Sea Moss Powder is ready for packaging, we transfer it straight into Miron glass containers. This creates a barrier against the usual suspects (air, heat and light) ensuring your product stays pristine for longer.

One of the most compelling reasons we’ve chosen Miron glass is its unparalleled ability to extend the shelf life of our Sea Moss Powder. While standard packaging can lead to the degradation of nutrients and freshness within a few months, Miron glass preserves our Sea Moss Powder for up to 6 months.

That means you can easily make it a part of your daily routine and don’t have to worry about buying a new bottle every month.

Thanks to Miron glass, every scoop of Sea Moss Powder is as fresh and potent as the first.

Unlike many plastic containers that can leach chemicals into your products, Miron glass is entirely chemical-free. We will never compromise on this or go against our company ethos.

You can trust that our Sea Moss Powder is stored in its purest form, without any unwanted additives or contaminants.

This superfood remains as nature intended – pure and potent.

Miron glass is also an environmentally friendly choice. It’s 100% recyclable, making it a sustainable option for eco-conscious consumers. We encourage our packaging to be lovingly reused – simply remove the sticker labels and repurpose your Miron jars.

The durability of Miron glass allows it to be reused multiple times without losing effectiveness, reducing the reliance on single-use plastic containers.

This contributes to a decrease in environmental waste and supports a more sustainable approach to packaging.

LAST WORD

In a world where quality is often compromised to save a few dollars, we believe it’s crucial to do the right thing for our consumer and planet. Always.

With love,
