Sustainable Packaging Framework Explained

The document outlines the company's sustainable packaging framework. It prioritizes packaging made from recycled content, especially post-consumer waste, and materials that are easily recyclable and can be recycled back into themselves. When recycled content is not feasible, it looks to post-industrial recycled content and renewable raw materials. It also seeks the most eco-friendly inks possible that use little petroleum and produce few toxins. The goal is to support the cradle-to-cradle cycle of materials and evolve the framework as technology advances.

OUR SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING FRAMEWORK :

Terms like “eco-friendly” and “sustainable” get thrown around so frequently that it can be hard to know
what they even mean. Can packaging be labeled “sustainable” just because it can be recycled? Because
it is recycled? Because it was made with renewable resources? Because it can biodegrade?

So we wrote this to clarify - for ourselves, our partners, and the amazing consumers, we get to work
with - what we mean by eco-friendly packaging, why we’ve made the choices we have.

We prioritize packaging that is made with as much recycled content as humanly possible. Within
“recycled content” we seek the highest level of post-consumer waste (versus post-industrial waste)
allowable without hindering the quality of the packaging. For certain packaging needs, recycled content
(especially post-consumer recycled content) is not feasible or practical. When we find this to be the
case, we first look to post-industrial content and next to packaging made with renewable raw materials.

We prioritize materials that are as easily recyclable as possible, with a focus on those that can be
recycled back into themselves. We use the most eco-minded inks possible for printing and branding,
with a focus on those that use as little petroleum as possible, produce the least amount of toxins, and
that have a low impact on recycling or composting. We see inks as a major opportunity for continued
innovation and look forward to offering new, more eco-friendly ink technology in the near future.

We help our customers motivate their customers to reuse or recycle their packaging to support the
cradle-to-cradle cycle of materials. We are always seeking new innovations and are open to evolving our
framework and product line as we learn and as technology advances.

Benefits:
Using eco-friendly packaging reduces your carbon footprint.

Eco-friendly materials are free from toxins and allergens.

Eco-friendly packaging uses materials that are biodegradable.

Eco-friendly packaging products are made from natural resources which do not cause health issues,
compared to artificial products.

These types of eco-friendly packaging products also use less energy to create, which further contributes
to energy conservation and less burning of fossil fuels.
