We use a wide range of shipping materials for our online orders, and we do our best to keep our planet in mind when packing orders, while also being sure your crystals will arrive safely. Our mailers are all made from recycled content and biodegradable. Our tape is entirely plantderived, renewable, and industrially compostable, and our packing peanuts are made from starch and decompose in water leaving no toxic waste.We believe in giving a second life to the shipping supplies used in the shipments we receive from our suppliers. We often save newspaper, bubble wrap, and packing peanuts to reuse for our online orders. Crystals that are delicate in nature will be wrapped in bubble wrap when necessary.
