Did you know that we use this nifty shredding machine to make stuffing from the cardboard boxes that our stock is delivered in? We must have saved tonnes of new paper wrapping and some money.
Even though paper is considered more eco than plastic, demand for new paper is putting pressure on native forests around the world to be logged. So, we need to be mindful of conserving all paper use and re-using as much as we can. 🌲
We were also the first online store in Australia that I am aware of to use water-activated paper tape! It took me a lot of digging to track down these machines many years ago. The tape becomes sticky once run through water - just like licking an old-fashioned postage stamp. 😋 Thankfully, this solution is now more common, saving a lot of un-recyclable plastic packing tape from waste. 🙌 🤩
Thank YOU for choosing plastic free packing by shopping online with Biome! 💚
