Rated Excellent by our customers
Our eco-friendly packaging labels and stickers are printed on 100% recycled paper made from 100% household paper waste, giving businesses a practical recycled paper option for adding clear environmental messages to packaging, parcels and products.
Supplied pre-printed and ready to apply, these self-adhesive stickers can be used on suitable boxes, bags, envelopes, cartons, postal packaging and product packaging. Simply peel from the backing and apply to a clean, dry surface.
One recycled paper material, different printed messages
All products within this range use the same 100% recycled paper material. The individual products differ by the environmental message and design printed onto the sticker.
Designs across the range include messaging relating to plastic-free packaging, paper packaging, recycled materials, natural products, biodegradable or compostable packaging and general eco-friendly branding.
Choose the design that best matches the packaging, product or environmental information you want to communicate to your customer.
Please note that the environmental message printed on a sticker describes the message you wish to communicate. For example, a “plastic free” or “biodegradable & compostable” sticker should only be applied where that wording accurately describes the packaging or product concerned.
Our 100% recycled paper stickers are a simple way to add clear environmental and packaging information to customer orders without having to print the message directly onto boxes, bags or other packaging.
Ecommerce Packaging
Apply recycled paper stickers to suitable postal boxes, paper mailing bags, envelopes and parcels to make packaging information clear when an order reaches your customer.
Postal Boxes & Parcels
Ideal for online retailers and fulfilment businesses wanting to add recycling, plastic-free or other environmental messaging to outgoing parcels.
Paper Mailing Bags
Our paper-not-plastic design is particularly useful for mailing bags that customers may otherwise mistake for plastic, helping make the packaging material clearer.
Retail & Product Packaging
Use the stickers on suitable product boxes, cartons, bags and outer packaging where you want to add a clear environmental message without producing custom-printed packaging.
Plastic-Free Packaging
Plastic-free stickers can be used to highlight packaging that is genuinely plastic free, giving customers a quick visual indication of the packaging choice you have made.
Recycled Packaging
Recycled messaging can be used where you want to highlight packaging or products made using recycled material, provided the claim accurately reflects the item being labelled.
Natural Products
Natural-themed stickers can be used on suitable packaging for handmade, craft, food, gift, cosmetic and other products where the printed message is appropriate.
Biodegradable & Compostable Packaging
The biodegradable and compostable sticker design can be used to identify packaging that genuinely meets the relevant biodegradable or compostable description.
Subscription Boxes
Add a consistent eco-friendly message to subscription boxes and recurring customer deliveries using ready-to-apply recycled paper stickers.
Small Businesses & Handmade Brands
These pre-printed stickers provide a straightforward option for smaller businesses that want professional packaging messaging without ordering bespoke printed boxes or bags.
The material used for these stickers is 100% recycled paper made from 100% household paper waste.
This is the shared material specification across the range, regardless of which printed design or environmental message you choose.
What does 100% recycled paper mean?
The paper face material used to manufacture these labels is made entirely from recycled paper rather than virgin paper. For this range, the recycled fibre comes from 100% household paper waste.
Recycled vs recyclable
These terms describe different things. Recycled describes material that has been produced using previously used or recovered material. Recyclable refers to whether a material can potentially be processed for recycling after use.
Our shared material claim for this product range is that the labels are made from 100% recycled paper using 100% household paper waste.
Plastic Free
“Plastic free” is one of the printed messages available within this range. It should be used where the packaging or product being described is genuinely plastic free.
Paper, Not Plastic
Paper-not-plastic messaging is particularly useful on paper mailing bags and packaging that may look similar to plastic. It can help customers identify the packaging material more easily.
100% Recycled
The recycled design provides a clear visual message for packaging or products where a recycled-content claim is appropriate.
100% Natural
Natural messaging is intended for products or packaging where that description is appropriate. It is a printed product message and is separate from the recycled-paper specification of the label itself.
Biodegradable & Compostable
Biodegradable and compostable are specific environmental terms relating to how a material may break down under appropriate conditions.
The biodegradable and compostable design should therefore only be used on packaging or products where those claims are accurate. The shared material specification for the sticker itself remains 100% recycled paper made from 100% household paper waste.
Eco-Friendly
General eco-friendly messaging provides a simple visual way to communicate an environmentally focused packaging or brand message.
What are these eco-friendly stickers made from?
They are printed on 100% recycled paper made from 100% household paper waste.
Are all of the stickers made from 100% recycled paper?
Yes. All of the sticker designs within this range use the same 100% recycled paper material made from 100% household paper waste.
What does 100% household paper waste mean?
It means the recycled paper used for the label face material is manufactured using household paper waste as its recycled paper source.
Are the stickers supplied already printed?
Yes. These are pre-printed stickers supplied ready to peel from the backing and apply, so you do not need to print them yourself.
What can I stick these labels onto?
They are suitable for many common clean, dry packaging surfaces including boxes, cartons, postal packaging, bags, envelopes and other suitable product packaging.
What is the difference between the products in this range?
The recycled paper material is the same across the range. The difference is the design and environmental message printed on the sticker, such as plastic free, recycled, natural, paper-not-plastic or general eco-friendly messaging.
Is recycled the same as recyclable?
No. Recycled refers to material made using recovered or previously used material, while recyclable refers to whether a material may be capable of being recycled after use.
Are all of these stickers biodegradable or compostable?
The shared material specification across the range is 100% recycled paper made from 100% household paper waste. Biodegradable or compostable wording appears on a specific printed design and should only be used where that message accurately describes the packaging or product being labelled.
Can I use a plastic-free sticker on any parcel?
Only use plastic-free wording where the packaging being described is genuinely plastic free. The printed message should accurately reflect the item or packaging to which the sticker is applied.
Are these suitable for ecommerce orders?
Yes. They are particularly useful for ecommerce packaging, postal boxes, mailing bags and parcels where you want to add a clear environmental or packaging message.
Can I use these on retail packaging?
Yes. They can be used on suitable product boxes, cartons, bags and other clean, dry packaging surfaces.
Why use a packaging sticker instead of printing the box?
Pre-printed stickers provide a flexible way to add packaging information to existing boxes, bags and parcels without ordering separately printed packaging for each message.
Can I have my own eco-friendly sticker design printed?
Yes. If you need your own logo, wording, recycling instructions or packaging message, see our personalised printed labels .
