About our packaging

We do our upmost to work by the reduce, reuse, recycle - principle. 
This reflects in our packaging. 

Our PET jar is a lightweight, circular packaging. After serving a first lifetime, it has been recycled into our rPET. And is now again, reusable or fully recyclable to get a third lifetime and more. So cherish its beautiful scars.

Our label has been developed to be fully removable. Different from the classic labels with a high intensity permanent glue (which makes the label unremovable & the PET jar consequently burnt instead of recycled) we've opted for our paper label with a thin layer of PE and non permanent glue. 
You can either remove the label when sorting, or the label will be removed during the recycling process.
