Sustainable Product Packaging
Products // 2022

What nature gives,
it takes back again.
Product packaging made from 100% natural
material which stands out with its natural,
functional properties and unique aesthetics.

Join the green
revolution!
Recycling is good! But isn‘t it better
not to produce any waste in the first
place? Recycling is always the second
choice. And the truth is, packaging is
rarely really recycled, anyway. That‘s
why we prefer to use an untreated
material from nature – because that
is of course biodegradable.
It‘s time for a green revolution.
Are you in?

Sustainability
Our mission is to bring truly sustainable, yet
aesthetic product packagings to the world.
That‘s why we work with minimalistic designs
and natural materials – no plastic, no additives.
Functional.
Beautiful.
Sustainable.

Material
Works for you,
and the environment.
Our products are made from the leaves of the betel nut
palm, a natural raw material that is generated as agricultural
waste. Since we do not use any synthetic additives during
the manufacturing process, our packaging is pollutant-free
and completely compostable at the end of its lifespan.
The material is inherently liquid-resistant for several hours
without any additional coating, oven-proof and microwaveable
as well as cool and freezer safe.
100% natural
liquid-proof
+ 200 C° - 20°C compostable

Pretty
versatile
Our packaging line is designed to
match so that the different sizes can
be perfectly combined with each
other. Complemented by individual
banderoles or stickers, they make
every content something special.

Manufacturing process
From leaf
to product
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
no grubbing
less water
0% additives
low energy
The areca palm has been grown for its fruits for centuries.
The palm trees are neither grubbed for our production,
nor do land areas have to be cleared for new plantations.
The fallen palm leaves are collected and transported to
the nearby factory. The leaves are then cleaned with water
and dried in the sun until they have reached the optimal
moisture content for processing. The untreated raw material is
finally pressed into the desired shape.

Production
Of course,
fairly produced
Sustainable, social and ethical management along the entire
value chain is very important to us. Our sustainability approach
therefore also includes fair production and trading conditions.
We work with local manufacturers near the palm plantations.
Through our production in rural areas we support the small
manufacturers and local labour women who earn a living and
strengthen their independence.
Since we do not source products from middlemen, we know
exactly where and how our products are made.
