Our environmentally thoughtful protective packaging is fashioned from the very same raw material that’s been used for decades to create egg cartons. Said another way, we turn garbage into safe, planet-friendly products. In May 2012, we filed a patent for a package design that will enable our customers to replace the toxic and ubiquitous PVC blister pack with our compostable alternative, the “PW-Pack”.
