“Green” Packaging

Global Resource Group works with our factories to develop creative “green”

packaging solutions. Below, we utilized 100% biodegradable PLA, 100% recycled

paperboard and combined the two for an upscale presentation.

Our recycled paper is combined with vegetable based inks in keeping with the “green”

theme. We offer a 100% sugar cane based material and many other “green”

packaging materials.
