Sustainability
Planet-Safe, From Sourcing to Soil
Regenerative Raw Materials
Our story starts with bamboo, nature’s very own carbon capture system. It grows quickly, renews itself naturally, and absorbs up to 17 tonnes of carbon per hectare each year (that’s equal to the annual carbon footprint of nearly 40,000 plastic bottles!)
Did You Know?
Not all “eco-packaging” comes from sustainable sources. Many are made from unrenewable petroleum sources, which pollutes the planet during extraction and processing.
Giving Offcuts a Second Life
Instead of harvesting virgin material or depleting food sources, we use bamboo offcuts from the construction industry that would otherwise be wasted or burned. By upcycling excess bamboo, we prevent waste, reduce emissions, and support a circular economy.
Did You Know?
Plant-based packaging isn’t always more sustainable. Some packaging uses materials like sugarcane, which can divert resources away from the food supply.
Local Sourcing for a Lower Footprint
All of our bamboo and plant-based resins are locally sourced in the same province as our manufacturing facility. This minimizes our carbon footprint and supports the regions connected to our materials.
Did You Know?
Post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials are often shipped across the world for collection and recycling. This incurs a hefty carbon footprint hidden upstream in the supply chain.
A Clean and Soil-Safe End
Finally, when your product reaches the end of its intended life, it returns to the earth just as gracefully as it began. Our material breaks down fully into nutrients that nourish the soil, to continue the cycle it started with nature.
Did You Know?
Compostable certification is key. Some packaging marketed as plant-based or eco-friendly still contain microplastics, which persist in the environment for thousands of years. Look for packaging that is 3rd party certified to break down quickly and safely.
