We now live in a green world (even though it has always been mostly blue). Join the green revolution, our range of eco-friendly products will help you do your bit.
Sustainability presumes all resources are finite and therefore should be used conservatively. Choosing packaging that doesn’t create excessive waste can be a step towards sustainability. Removing plastic packaging completely may not be the answer as full dependence on cardboard creates huge pressure on our forests. A reduction in waste and choosing a packaging solution that can easily be recycled or used again can be a healthy environmental balance.
Whilst we understand that no packaging material is 100% environmentally friendly, we have a range of products that are a step in the right direction and we are always looking for materials that will help to reduce the environmental damage we are having on our planet.

Our oxo-biodegradable (designed to degrade with oxidation) bubble wrap rolls can be regarded as the greener alternative to standard bubble wrap. The oxo-biodegradable characteristics allows the bubble wrap to break down in natural conditions. It is 100% recyclable and if it does end up in landfill it will break down much quicker than standard polythene waste. Not a perfect solution but can be regarded as a step in the right direction. It is still very important that this material is recycled responsibly, despite this material being able to break down quicker it still should not enter landfill or river systems ! This is not a compostable product.
10mm diameter bubbles.
Made with 30% recycled material
Larger widths are available for collection or local delivery only.

The real difference with these bags is that they will degrade in landfill at a significantly quicker rate than conventional bubble bags.
The polyethylene used in these bags is much easier to break down than commercial grades which have polymers with a higher molecular weight and, therefore, very resistant to direct microbial attack.
Do not contain heavy toxic metals.
The oxo-biodegradable bubble used in these bags is not a perfect solution but certainly a step in the right direction in reducing waste for future generations.
Waste material is only truly ‘eco friendly’ when it is recycled responsibly. This material must still be recycled and should never enter landfill or river systems.
Made with at least 30% recycled content.
Still made from high quality 70mu bubble wrap.
30mm self seal lip.
