Looking for eco-friendly packaging vendors

Does anyone have any great packaging recommendations, particularly eco-friendly? I'm interested for both in-store and shipping. Always looking for vendors with reasonable prices, low minimums, and great service for us mom and pops.

Hey @shopfybr - this is a great question! There's a similar post in the Food & Beverage group where someone recommended Elevate Packaging. I'm not sure if they offer anything that would meet your needs, but it might be worth a peek. Good luck! 🙂 

P.S. I'm editing the title of your post to make it easier for other people to find and hopefully offer suggestions. 🙂

I highly recommend EcoEnclose.  They will send you out free samples of their packaging materials also.  Check them out.

Take a look at Nashville Wraps.  https://www.nashvillewraps.com/ They are made in USA and have a nice selection of eco-option products.

So, this is probably crazy, and not practical... especially for a business doing a larger volume of shipping, but you could consider re-using shipping materials. I take used bubble mailers, air pockets, bubble wrap, brown paper, etc. and then reuse it to ship items. 

Crazy, I know 😄 But it doesn't get any greener!

In terms of actual packaging out there...

I know there are packing peanuts that dissolve in water (magic!) - https://www.uline.com/BL_2001/Biodegradable-Peanuts

And I LOVE everything this company offers as well - https://www.ecoenclose.com/

Glad to see a fellow hippie earth lover here ❤️

I definitely can't recommend ecoenclose as well! They have everything you can possibly think of for packaging options but for mailers that can better fit your brand I'd recommend https://impack.co/
