Eco Flo® - Our Biodegradable Loosefill Packing Solution
By Smart Marketing

As an ethical manufacturer of natural skin and body care products, it is part of our mission to reduce our carbon footprint and make sustainable choices wherever we can. As well as working to make products which are packaged in recycled, recyclable or refillable plastic bottles, we do our best to use external packaging which is kind to the environment. With this in mind, instead of using standard polystyrene ‘peanuts’ to protect our products during transit, we use biodegradable loosefill from Eco Flo®.
Why not polystyrene?
Commonplace polystyrene packing products are made from non-sustainable petroleum, compressed into plastic, meaning that it degrades very slowly, is highly flammable and harms marine life. Expanded polystyrene is 98% air, floats on the surface of water, and is considered to be one of the main components of marine debris globally. The production of polystyrene products uses hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) which are known to negatively impact the ozone layer and contribute to climate change.
