We’ve implemented a systematic approach to eliminate plastic and embrace biodegradable, paper-based, and circular packaging models.

1. Replacing OPP Bags with Greener Choices
Why We Eliminated OPP Bags
OPP (oriented polypropylene) bags have long been used due to their clarity and strength. However, their inability to biodegrade makes them a significant environmental burden. We phased them out in favor of alternatives that are both biodegradable and functionally durable. And many of our clients also asked us to do this.
Our Alternative Solutions:
Kraft paper sleeves
Recycled tissue wraps
Custom-molded paper holders for delicate items
This shift not only reduces landfill contributions but also aligns with the expectations of premium, sustainability-conscious retailers.

2. Integrating Biodegradable Materials
We introduced plant-based and compostable materials across several packaging layers:
Cushioning: Corn-starch fillers & molded pulp trays
Wrapping: Sugarcane bagasse paper
Sealing: Natural glue tapes
These materials decompose naturally, often within 90 to 180 days, under industrial composting conditions. The result is packaging that supports the circular economy while protecting our products during transit.

3. Committing to Paper-Based Packaging
Paper isn’t just a medium we write on—it’s also a sustainable packaging solution. Our factory integrates paper-based alternatives including:
Corrugated cardboard for boxes
Kraft paper wraps and pouches
Paper stickers and seals
These materials are:
Recyclable and renewable
Biodegradable
Cost-efficient for B2B volume production
Beyond sustainability, paper packaging enhances your brand's aesthetic—especially when customized with printed logos and branded textures.
