Sustainable Packaging

It’s been nearly a year since we ditched plastic in our packaging to move to more eco-conscious materials, and we haven’t looked back.

It’s been nearly a year since we ditched plastic in our packaging to move to more eco-conscious materials, and we haven’t looked back. We’re proud to say we are now using 100% recyclable shipping materials, including GreenWrap, a fantastic combination of specialty cut kraft paper and tissue that is Sustainable Forestry Initiative-certified, recyclable, and biodegradable.

We are working with our suppliers to ensure that the materials we use to build our supplies are packaged in sustainable materials wherever possible. When plastic shows up at the shop, we do our best to reuse it. Many shipping centers accept donations of packing materials as well, including the ubiquitous bubble-wrap and air pillows.

Moving toward a sustainable future is a process, and we would love to have you join us on the journey!
