All our packaging products are 100% recyclable and eco-friendly so that your unboxing experience isn’t tarnished by excessive amounts of non-recyclable plastic! 

• FSC Certified - This ensures the paper products that make up our packaging are sourced from a forest and supply chain that is managed responsibly and sustainably.
• Uses Soy-based Inks - These are an eco-friendly alternative to petroleum-based inks, made from soybeans, a renewable resource. 
• Made from Acid Free Paper - They are also made from cellulose fiber where the active acid pulp is eliminated during processing. The pulp is also lignin- and sulfur-free, meaning that our ink won’t transfer from the stickers and the paper won’t leave behind any of these chemicals when decomposing.
