STEPS TO BECOMING MORE SUSTAINABLE | MEET THE BETTER PACKAGING CO –

It is our goal this year to do our bit for the environment, by educating ourselves on the many ways we can be a more sustainable brand.

Our first step to becoming a greener business starts with our packaging. As of March 2020 we will no longer use plastic mailer satchels for online orders and will instead opt for a home-compostable courier satchel by The Better Packaging Co!

The Better Packaging Co

The Better Packaging Co are a team based in New Zealand who are determined to improve the state of the natural environment. Having seen firsthand the amount of plastic waste generated by the eCommerce industry, founders Rebecca and Kate decided to start their own business dedicated to making courier packaging that wasn’t damaging to the environment.

The result? Compostable courier bags than can be placed in your home compost with your fruit and veg scraps or your green bin with your garden trimmings!

The comPOST packs are made from 100% biodegradable and compostable plant material derived from corn. The raw materials used to make every comPOST pack are sustainably produced in America and China.

Once finished with the comPOST pack, all you need to do is put it in with your food scraps and garden waste. The packs breakdown naturally within 90 days in a compost bin in a non-toxic process that doesn't pollute the environment!

We are proud to have partnered with The Better Packaging Co and are excited to be embarking on our journey to becoming a sustainable company working to protect our earth.
