KYMBA PACKAGING

Every parcel from KYMBA Store is packed with love in either our KYMBA recycled box or KYMBA pouch to ensure it arrives to you safely. Better still, we are completely plastic free. We do not use plastic in any of our packaging or shipping. 

To ship your items we use compostable mailers, which are made from home-compostable materials, mainly corn starch and PBAT (a compostable ingredient which bonds the renewable ingredients together). 

To compost them at home, it’s best to remove any labels, cut them up and place in your compost bin as “brown” materials. These will completely break down within 90-120 days in a home-compostable environment - sometimes even sooner!

The best part is that they still break down in landfill. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the landfill process, this will still add to methane production. That's why it's important to help your customers compost our products to take full advantage of the environmental benefits. Our products take about 2 years rather than 90 days to break down in landfill. In contrast, traditional plastic shipping mailers take 400 years or more to break down, and still release deadly methane gas into the atmosphere.
