October 27, 2020

 Please refer to our below guide on the sustainable materials we use and recyclability.

Mailer Box

Material

An environmentally friendly corrugate cardboard. The fluting and the inside liner are made from recycled materials, the outside liner is made from a virgin kraft material.

Recyclable? Yes, widely collected.

Carton

Material

Our cartons are made of a foldable boxboard, sourced from a local Scottish company who use solar power to prevent 150 tonnes of carbon being released into the atmosphere each year.

Recyclable? Yes, widely collected.

Bottle & Dropper Lid

Materials

Our Scottish sourced bottles are made up of the following materials and are easy to separate for recycling:

Bottle & Dropper - Glass

Label - 30% Recycled Paper

Collar - Polypropylene Plastic (PP)

Teat - Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

Recyclable? All components are recyclable.  The glass, label and PPE components are widely collected. The TPE, which has a much more positive environmental impact than rubber, is recyclable and can be reclaimed or reused.  Terracycle offer a great recycling programme for dropper bottles.
