Of course, in order to maintain tension, gifts must be beautifully packaged: wrapping paper, bows, and pendants with birthday greetings can refine a little attention. But how can the packaging continue to be used? For example, cats really like to play with crisp packaging and hiding in cardboard boxes. But so much more can be done with sustainable gift packaging!

To achieve this by giving gifts without having to raise curious expectations when unpacking, there are now many great sustainable gift packaging. Environmental awareness is quite simple! We show you how to easily and sustainably wrap gifts and raise awareness among your employees and customers.
What are the options for sustainable gift packaging?

Others must travel long distances through the mail to reach the recipient. No matter how you want to pack your gifts, their shape and size, and the distance they must go beyond, you will find suitable ideas for sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging.

Cartons and boxes for wine bottles and much more
One of the other gifts requires particularly robust packaging in order to be safely delivered to the recipient. For example, a corrugated cardboard box is 100% recyclable and has a very diverse appearance. Simple white or natural coloured packaging is represented, as well as coloured cardboard boxes with a corrugated appearance of unusual boxes with a leather appearance. If you need more stable packaging, it is best to use wooden cassettes and wooden boxes. These come in different sizes, for example, for expensive bottles, but there are also smaller and larger versions, depending on what gift it is. An almost foldable wooden box with a carrying cord facilitates easy transportation and delivery of high-quality wine. These and other gift boxes can also be individually designed and personalized to obtain a more personalized style or as promotional gifts.
Thematically coordinated and stylishly draped – in baskets and on trays.
