What Is Blueland’s Shipping Packaging Made Of?

Anatomy Of Blueland Packaging Series: Shipping Materials

At Blueland, we believe in making sustainable a feature of every aspect of our products, inside and including the box. That’s why we’ve worked hard to make our shipping packaging can be recycled or composted, instead of throwing it away, because it’s not just what’s inside the box that counts.

What Are Blueland Shipping Boxes Made Out Of?

• Blueland boxes: There are many aspects to our boxes to make sure your products arrive safe and sound. But the first layer of protection is the Blueland box. Blueland boxes are made from cardboard and are made up of recycled content and are also recyclable. The boxes are easy to break down and put in with curbside recycling.
• Blueland inserts: Inside of each Blueland box, there are inserts or trays to keep your products from moving around during shipping. These inserts are also made from cardboard and are made up of recycled content. Like the shipping boxes, they are also recyclable and easy to break down!
• Blueland ink: We used water-based ink on our shipping boxes, that contains fewer solvents than other ink non-water-based inks and doesn’t contain VOCs. The inks we use on our packaging doesn’t impact the recyclability of our boxes.
• Blueland tape: We use water-activated paper tape on all of our shipping boxes. This tape doesn’t contain plastic and is recyclable, unlike many traditional adhesive tapes. Plus, the paper used for our paper table is sourced from FSC certified paper mills.
