Our Wrapping Paper Journey
Posted by Pollyanna Stevens
The environmental concerns that come with manufacturing wrapping paper has meant that we’ve resisted retailing it for some years now. Typically, wrapping paper is distributed in plastic packs containing 25 sheets — not exactly aligning with our recent move away from plastic packaging!
But, thanks to our wonderful printers, we managed to find a solution! Our wrapping paper is now being delivered directly to our office in bulk, with paper tabs marking batches of 25. And to avoid the environmental catastrophe that is plastic packaging, we’re hand-wrapping our sheets in kraft paper, which is 100% recyclable.
Obviously this is a bit more time-consuming, and a bit more expensive than simply using plastic packaging. But given the environmental costs of plastic waste, we think it’s worth it. We hope you agree!
