Conscious Extras: Stickers
Every detail matters when it comes to sustainability. That’s why we’ve taken extra steps to ensure that even the stickers you receive with your SCAVO purchase are eco-friendly. Made from biodegradable and compostable materials, these stickers are a small yet significant part of our commitment to a greener planet. We believe that sustainability should extend to every aspect of our products, no matter how small.
Sustainable Packaging & Stickers
Eco-Friendly Stickers:
We’ve used Stickerit to provide two types of environmentally conscious stickers with every purchase.
- Biodegradable Paper Stickers - These stickers are crafted from a sugarcane byproduct called bagasse, blended with hemp and linen, making them both vegan and environmentally friendly. The matte finish is a natural result of the paper’s texture, printed with certified compostable and vegan inks. These stickers not only look good but are designed to return to the earth safely, leaving no harmful residue.
- Eco-Friendly Holographic - Stickers Made from wood pulp, these holographic stickers shine with a rainbow/iridescent effect, bringing a touch of brightness to your package. They are also printed with compostable and vegan inks. Despite their glossy finish, they remain 100% compostable, breaking down without leaving a trace of harmful materials.
Sustainable Packaging:
Our commitment to sustainability continues with our packaging solutions, which are thoughtfully selected to minimise environmental impact:Compostable MailersOur mailers are sourced from Unicorn Pack and made from corn starch, PLA, and PBAT, making them 100% compostable and biodegradable. These black poly bags are durable enough to handle up to 5kg of goods and can decompose in approximately six months under favorable composting conditions. We encourage customers to reuse these mailers before composting them, extending their lifecycle and reducing waste.
Compostable Cello Bags:
For additional protection, we use A3 biodegradable/compostable cello bags sourced from LittleGreenCoShop. Made from plant-based PLA, these bags are clear, compostable, and environmentally friendly. While they break down more slowly in home composting conditions, they are a significant step toward reducing plastic use and promoting sustainable practices.
