Our packaging is in line with Soil Association organic and BRC standards for packaging foodstuffs.
Our dried goods are supplied in paper bags with either a standard LDPE liner or a blue liner which comply with applicable EU food regulations.

Our kraft paper bags are supplied by Kingfisher and have the following attributes:
• Certified EN 13432 compostable
• Blue Angel certified
• PEFC Soil Association Woodmark
Kingfisher also has BRC storage and distribution certification and ISO 9001:2008 certification.
We use
Polylite liners for kilo stock and
Polyair liners for 25kg and over, and both have the following attributes:
• 100% LDPE - recycling group 4
• Commercially recyclable depending on commercial contracts (NB. check with your local council for domestic reliability)
• Our supplier has BRC certification for packaging and packaging materials
Polyair is PAS2050 carbon neutral certified and is bio-based, made from GM-free sugar cane. It is not biodegradable, compostable or oxy-biodegradable (leading to dangerous microplastics), but it is fully recyclable and reusable by the customer. To meet our BRC standards we do not reuse any of our packaging.
For all stock above 1kg and below 25kg we use standard blue liner.
Our liquids are supplied in food grade HDPE bottles (recycling group 2, check with local authority/waste contract). We can supply some products in amber glass at additional cost and risk to the customer and we send our essential oils in aluminium.
