Are your packaging materials environmentally-friendly?

January 18, 2024

Are your packaging materials environmentally-friendly?

Yes. We make custom boxes from materials that are better for the planet. More brands want to cut waste and lower their impact every year. We help them do it. This guide explains the green materials we use and how to be sure your boxes are truly eco-friendly.

Recycled Paper and Cardboard

This stock is made from paper that has already been used. It saves trees and keeps waste out of landfills. It is also strong, easy to print, and fully recyclable. Our corrugated boxes use this material.

Reusable Packaging

Some boxes are built to last. Your customer can use them again instead of tossing them out. This cuts waste and adds value to your brand. Sturdy mailer boxes work well for this.

Sustainable Materials

We also offer boxes made from renewable sources, such as kraft paperboard. Kraft has a clean, natural look. It is recyclable and biodegradable. Browse our eco-friendly boxes to see these options.

Reduced Packaging

A box that fits your product is a greener box. We right-size every order. This uses less material and lowers shipping weight. You waste less and save money too.

How to Be Sure Your Packaging Is Green

Always ask your supplier what the box is made from. Look for recycled content, kraft fiber, and water-based inks. At Discount Box Printing, we make every box factory-direct in the USA. So we can tell you exactly what goes into your order.
