SUSTAINABILITY
At Tidy Minds Paper Co, sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We are committed to reducing our impact as much as humanly possible, so that you can tidy your mind without costing the Earth.
PRINTED BY A LOCAL COMPANY
All of our stationery is designed in-house by Sally in the UK and printed by a company 11 miles away from Tidy Minds HQ! The printing company has a lot of eco credentials too:
​
-
The factory is run by renewable energy (solar panels)
-
They are certified for ISO14001 (environmental management)
-
They have reduced their landfill waste by one third.
-
They are certified to use Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC) products sourced from well-managed forests and other responsible sources.
ONLY VEGETABLE INKS USED
Conventional ink printer cartridges and their ink contain harmful chemicals, most of which are bad for the environment. Ink cartridges are made from oil. The oil and heavy metals present in the ink help contribute to water and soil pollution when spent ink cartridges are disposed of and end up in the landfill.
​
Our stationery is only printed with vegetable inks. Vegetable inks are a renewable resource that don't contain harmful chemicals so these are a more eco-friendly alternative.
ZERO PLASTIC
From Day 1 of Tidy Minds, we have used zero plastic in our packaging. As well as finding completely plastic free ways to package our stationery, we only use cardboard envelopes and paper tape in our postal packaging. Nothing unnecessary is used when posting to reduce waste even more. We encourage you to reuse or recycle any outer packaging you receive from us too!
​
The stationery itself is packaged with recycled cotton twine (which you can reuse for gift wrap) and a small recycled and recyclable tag. That's it!
RECYCLED PAPER
We hate the idea of trees being cut down unnecessarily, so we only use recycled paper in all of our stationery and our packaging so that it can be given a second life.
EVERY ORDER PLANTS A TREE
We have partnered with Ecologi to plant a tree for every order placed. So not only does our stationery not cut down trees, it also plants new ones!
