| Our product contains >99% recycled paper (post-consumer). No new material is used in our product. The recycling of paper saves valuable landfill space, saves energy, reduces pollution and uses less resources than manufacturing from virgin material. |
Our process utilises virtually all recycled paper. Maximising recycling (and therefore reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill) helps reduce demand for landfill sites, preventing habitat destruction and water-way pollution from tip sites. |
Our patented process is Process Chlorine Free (PCF). This means that it does not use any bleach whatsoever (chlorine, oxygen-based or elemental).Bleaches contain chemicals which may increase respiratory risk and produce toxic by-products. These can adversely affect humans, animals and the environment. |
Our product relies on the natural absorption qualities of paper, and does not utilise additives or chemicals.Coating, anti-clumping and scent additives (which only mask odours) may pose health threats to humans and animals alike because they contain, create or utilise chemicals, allergens, fumes and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions. |
After use, our product can be used as surface mulch in gardens or will decompose beneficially in a managed landfill facility. Paper biodegrades over time with the assistance of oxygen and water. Mulching of paper (especially when mixed with other organic material) can help suppress weed growth, retain water, help protect plants from frost and reduce soil erosion. |
Our packaging is made from >99% renewable paper which can be recycled, is biodegradable and can be used as an environment-friendly bio-fuel. Recycling paper saves valuable landfill space, saves energy, uses less resources and reduces pollution. Paper packaging can also work well in composting. |
Our packaging utilises water-based inks instead of traditional solvent-based inks. Solvent-based inks utilise petrochemicals (oil) which create higher Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions and hazardous waste. VOC emissions include a variety of chemicals, some of which may have short- and long-term adverse effects (to humans, animals and the environment). |
Our recycled paper product is lighter than clay, chemical and wood alternatives.Lighter products result in lower fuel usage (before and after purchase) and lower emissions per km (before and after purchase). |
