Why Paper?

We carefully select and vet all of our suppliers to ensure that sustainable source and practice are put into place. We do this because we care about our environment and our planet.

We have made an environmentally conscious decision of choosing to use paper in our labels versus plastic labels. We believe this decision helps us minimize our carbon footprint as we are choosing to use a truly renewable resource from sustainably managed forests.

Did You Know?
Sustainably-produced forest products create the incentive to give proper care and management to forests and preserve the land for future generations.

How Do We Source It?

We know paper making is a resource-intensive business, thus we are extremely mindful to ensure we vet and select suppliers that use resources as efficiently as possible so as to minimize the harmful impact on the environment.

We ensure that our suppliers procure wood fiber from sustainably managed forests and meet credible forest certification standards. These standards verify that the perpetual regeneration, growing and harvesting of trees is successfully integrated with the protection of wildlife and wildlife habitat, plants, soil, air and water quality. We do this because we care about our environment and our world.
