Eco Packaging- Please excuse we like to re-use!
As a company that loves our natural and sustainably made products we also try to be environmentally minded throughout the process of delivering them to you.
We shamelessly reuse shipping boxes as much as possible. These have proven themselves to safely transport their contents to us and are still in great shape to bring them to you. We do ensure that our boxes are either wrapped with Eco friendly shipping paper, or popped into our Hero packing compostable mailing bags, to ensure safe transit to your cosy homes.
We encourage our families to use your recycled boxes and packaging for any play or arts and crafts before they make their way to your recycling bins.
