Communication

For us, education is key.  We want to educate ourselves and our customers, and also the end consumers.  We see the proliferation of green products on the market, which is exciting, but we also understand there is a lot of confusion out there on the terminology used.

We are committed to transparency and all of our business practice is based on an ongoing search of communication tools to explain and clarify the way the product is made and what content is used.

We have teamed up with DuPont and ScanLife to use technology to educate the end consumer. To achieve this goal we look forward to developing partnerships with you to use the ScanLife code, an interactive system to give your consumers immediate access to a broader range of information, such as material content, origin, manufacturing processes and end of life options.You are no longer limited to the size of your hangtag.

Our commitment to education extends to the packaging designers of tomorrow. We created and taught a sustainable packaging design course for the senior packaging designers at F.I.T. (Fashion Institute of Technology in New York). The content developed for this course is now used throughout all classes within the packaging program to better integrate sustainability in the students design process.
