New sustainable package from Paddywax, a Georgia-based candle-making company founded by Gretchen Hollingsworth and husband, David Duncan.
I’m seeing more and more of the classic egg-carton, molded pulp packaging around recently. I like it. I also like the twine and the striped hang-tag.
Paddywax’s packaging is designed by Principle with offices in Houston, Texas and Quebec City. According to Pamela Zuccker, a partner at the firm, their successful re-branding of Paddywax began in 2004. Her email also included some information confirming the new product packaging’s eco-credentials:
From soy-based inks, to hemp twine, to recycled paper, this eco-sensitive collection is committed to conserving our planets resources. The chlorine free paper pulp box is manufactured in an ISO 14001 standard facility with 100% post-industrial recycled paper. The packaging label is FSC-certified.
