Sustainability

Premium packaging that's good for the planet.

Sustainable should be the default — not an upcharge. Every Packaging Yard order ships on certified materials, with low-VOC inks, and zero single-use plastic. Recyclable, kraft, biodegradable, and responsibly sourced packaging — for brands that care.

Our principles

Six ways we're lighter on the planet.

FSC-certified stocks

Forest Stewardship Council certified board across our entire catalog by default — sustainable forestry verified at every step.

100% recyclable

Every box we produce is fully curbside recyclable. No plastic windows, no PE coatings unless required.

Water-based, soy inks

Soy-based inks and water-based coatings, free from petroleum-derived chemistry and high-VOC solvents.

Carbon-aware production

Our facilities run on renewable electricity and we offset shipping emissions on every order.

Biodegradable & compostable

PLA-lined and bagasse-based packaging that decomposes naturally — perfect for food, organic skincare, and zero-waste brands.

Plastic-free shipping

Outer cartons, void fill, and tape are all paper-based. Zero single-use plastic in our supply chain.

Our commitments

The standards we hold ourselves to.

Sustainability is a promise we make on every order — not a premium upgrade. Here's exactly what that looks like in practice.

  • 100% of default kraft stocks are post-consumer recycled
  • Soy-based inks for offset printing across all facilities
  • All shipping cartons are 100% curbside recyclable
  • Carbon offsetting included on every shipment
  • Biodegradable PLA-lined options for food packaging
  • Annual sustainability report published publicly
