Our Packaging

Our Packaging

eco friendly packaging

OUR BAGS

  • All of our handle bags are made from 100% recycled content, with 95% of the content coming from post consumer sources.
  • They are manufactured in the United States. This ensures a reduced carbon footprint when shipping.
  • We never use plastic bags in effort to reduce plastic pollution and the demand for plastic. We do keep a stash of “previously used” plastic bags in the shop in case one is really needed (for those times when a customer has walked to the shop, and suddenly it is a torrential downpour!).
  • We always encourage our customers to bring their own bags! We now offer a 10 cents discount on your purchase if you bring your own bag!

We recommend:

  • Reusing the handle bags as gift bags as long as possible before recycling them.
  • Reusing the flat bags as wrap if possible, and then recycling them.

OUR BOXES

  • All of our gift boxes are made from 100% recycled content, from post consumer sources.
  • Our jewelry boxes are made from 95% recycled content.
  • They are manufactured in the United States. This ensures a reduced carbon footprint when shipping.
We recommend:
  • Reusing the boxes for gifts or storage. 
  • If you must discard of them, please recycle.

OUR TISSUE PAPER

  • Is made from 100% Post Industrial Recycled Fibers in the United States.

We recommend:

  • Reusing the the tissue paper for storing or shipping breakables.
  • Reuse is the best option for tissue paper because it is not recyclable in most municipal facilities. Because of this, we use it sparingly.

WHEN WE SHIP

  • We use reused boxes and envelopes.
  • We use reused bubble wrap.
    • Have some bubble wrap but don’t have a use for it? Bring it by, we will be happy to give it another use.

We make efforts to choose the best options available, but are always trying to improve our packaging to reduce our carbon footprint. Have a suggestion or idea on how we can improve? Email us at hello@christap.sg-host.com.
