When looking for materials to make our hand made cards, we prioritise using recycled / renewable resources.

The card and envelopes are from 100% post consumer waste materials.  The buff coloured cards are 75% post consumer waste paper and 25% elephant poo. This supports a project in Sri Lanka where a 'habitat war' between villagers growing crops and elephants looking for food is an ongoing tension. For more information visit www.eureka.lk/elefound

The decoration on the card also uses recycled materials where possible, this is not necessarily 100% recycled.  Where ribbon is used on some of the cards, it is silk ribbon because as a natural fibre, it is a renewable recourses. The inks and decorative papers are acid free.

We have also included our own eco rating for the cards, see the eco rating page for more details.

The packaging we use is also sourced with recycled materials in mind. We have tried to find envelopes and boxes that protect the cards in transit, but with reasonable renewable credentials.

We hope you enjoy our cards and they bring lasting pleasure to those you send them too, whilst minimising the impact on our world.
