Here at Lola & Lamar we have consciously made a change and improved our packaging over the last few months. 100% of all Lola & Lamar orders now travel from our headquarters to you in sustainably sourced paper mailers. These mailers are recyclable, biodegradable, plastic free and manufactured entirely carbon neutrally.

We knew we wanted to move away from our old recycled/recyclable poly-mailers but have avoided switching to new compostable bags because more often than not, these need to decompose in environments that most of us don't have at home. Cardboard recycling is the most widely available and paper mailers can be recycled in curbside bins or added to home compost as a carbon component. We are using a post-consumer paper material which is a natural, renewable and recyclable resource.

Switching from recycled plastic poly mailers to a biodegradable alternative has been an important step for us towards becoming climate positive. Now our sights are set on our warehouse and dispatch bags and will be looking to move these to biodegradable options.
