RECYCLING

100% Biodegradeable and compostable – plastic free packaging..

The tube is made in the UK from recycled card. 

The inner bag is a home compostable clear film made from wood pulp. 

Postal packaging
The brown cardboard outers are made from FSC certified sources, are 100% recyclable and are sealed with 100% recyclable brown kraft tape.

The green coloured bubble wrap we use is Biodegradable. These are made from a formulation containing a mixture of a metal ion pro-oxidant system and a biodegradation initiator. These bubble bags will promote the growth of microbial colonies to break them down over 9-12 months and is dependant on temperature and where they are stored. The process of degradation is accelerated in higher temperatures and high UV levels. It helps prevent our landfill sites being filled with polythene products that will take thousands of years to degrade !

We don’t seal the bags so please also reuse them for your own parcels.

The larger Ultipac bubbles are made from reclaimed plastic. By volume only 1% of the material remains when burst and can be recycled in household plastic bins. Or please reuse them for your own parcels.

Delivery
We use DPD Local for most of our deliveries. They are Carbon Neutral through efficient delivery vehicles and carbon offsetting.
