Frequently asked questions

Have questions? We’re here to help

01. Are your products recyclable?

As you can see from guide above, most elements in our products are fully recyclable, but we’re working hard to make even more of them easy to recycle.

02. Do you use FSC-certified materials?

Yes! Over 99% of our products are made using FSC-certified paper, which comes from responsibly managed forests.

03. Do you use plastic-free packaging?

Yes — the vast majority of our products now come in plastic-free packaging, and we’re working hard to remove the remaining bits. That means we’ve swapped things like shrink wrap and cello bags for recyclable, paper-based alternatives that are much kinder to the planet.

04. Do your products contain glitter or foil?

We removed glitter from all our cards back in 2020 to help reduce microplastic waste and make recycling easier. We do still use foil on some designs — but always below the threshold that prevents recycling, so your cards can still be recycled at home.
