Packaging

The potato starch wrapping is compostable. The packaging board is 100% recyclable, 100% biodegradable and made from 90% recycled or recovered paper.

Please dispose of the potato starch wrapping in one of the following ways:

1. Add to your home compost heap.
2. Discard into your garden waste bin.
3. Use to line your food waste caddy (providing there are no holes!)
4. Put in your general waste if the options above are not available.

Please do not put it in the plastic recycling.

We are very grateful to Hymns Ancient & Modern Ltd, for assisting us in researching and implementing the use of potato starch wrapping.
