How To Order Seed Paper Boxes

From food items to cosmetics and everything in between, product packaging is as essential to businesses as the products themselves. However, the materials used to create these necessary items are adding a dangerous amount of waste in our landfills. In fact, according to this article by Green Industries, 150 million tonnes of waste is created by packaging from industry and commerce each year. So when companies use eco-green packaging alternatives for their products, it shows that they’re committed to making sustainable choices because they cut back on the paper trail.

Reduce waste and demonstrate your company’s corporate sustainability with memorable eco-friendly packaging!

Perfect for a variety of products or even corporate gift packaging, seed paper boxes from Botanical PaperWorks are a great way to reduce your company’s carbon footprint while giving special gift that grows. Created with post-consumer materials, these promotional products are embedded with NON-GMO seeds that grow when planted in soil leaving no waste behind!

Here’s a step-by-step guide to how it works:

1) Decide On A Style

Depending on the item you are packaging, Botanical PaperWorks has a variety of options available so consider your item when choosing what style might be best. Each box is sturdy but they are best suited for lightweight items such as jewelry or cosmetics so they hold their shape. If you have a delicate product that needs further protection, we recommend using seed paper filler that can be planted to grow even more wildflowers!

Special Notes For Custom Boxes:

If you choose a custom box, you will require a custom die for production which has a one-time setup fee of approximately $300. The die is then yours for life if you need to re-order more boxes. The maximum flat dimensions of your box design must fit within 11.5 x 17.5” with a 1/4 of an inch margins. I

TIP: Be sure to create a mockup of your box design and test it with your product/item before submitting your order to ensure the style of box is just right.
