Why Georgia Businesses Choose Us
Why Choose Our Eco-Friendly Boxes
Custom Eco-Friendly Boxes | Sustainable Packaging with FSC, Recycled & Compostable Options
Eco-friendly packaging is no longer a niche preference — it is a mainstream market expectation driven by consumer demand, retailer sustainability commitments, and evolving regulatory requirements across global markets. Our eco-friendly packaging solutions are manufactured from materials with verifiable environmental credentials: FSC-certified virgin fiber, post-consumer recycled content, compostable PLA coatings, and soy-based printing inks that minimize the environmental impact of packaging production without compromising structural performance or print quality.
Material Options
- FSC-Certified SBS: Virgin fiber board certified by the Forest Stewardship Council — responsibly sourced from managed forests
- Recycled Content Board: Post-consumer waste (PCW) recycled paperboard with 30–100% recycled content
- Natural Kraft: Unbleached kraft paperboard with naturally brown appearance communicating sustainable credentials
- Compostable PLA Coating: Plant-based polylactic acid coating replacing petroleum-based PE for compostable applications
- Water-Based Coatings: Aqueous varnishes replacing solvent-based coatings to eliminate VOC emissions
Certifications Available
We provide documentation for FSC Chain of Custody certification, SFI (Sustainable Forestry Initiative) certification, ASTM D6400 compostability certification for PLA-coated boards, and FCA-compliant PFAS-free coating verification. These certifications enable brands to make substantiated sustainability marketing claims that meet FTC Green Guides standards.
Substantiated vs. Greenwashing: What Your Packaging Claims Need
The FTC Green Guides (16 CFR Part 260) require that environmental marketing claims be specific, substantiated, and not misleading. Claiming your packaging is 'eco-friendly' or 'green' without documentation is greenwashing — a regulatory and reputational risk. We provide Chain of Custody documentation for FSC and SFI certifications, ASTM D6400 certification for compostable materials, and recycled content verification letters that enable brands to make specific, defensible environmental claims: '100% recycled paperboard,' 'FSC-certified materials,' or 'certified compostable packaging.'
Sustainable Packaging and Retail Compliance
Major retailers are increasingly imposing sustainability requirements on packaging suppliers. Target's sustainable packaging index, Walmart's Project Gigaton, and Amazon's Climate Pledge Friendly program all reward or require packaging that meets specific environmental standards. We produce packaging that meets these retailer sustainability programs and provide the documentation required for supplier compliance submissions.

Eco-Friendly Boxes in Georgia — FAQs
What is the difference between recyclable and compostable packaging?
Recyclable packaging can be processed through existing curbside or commercial recycling streams to produce new materials. Compostable packaging breaks down into organic matter under composting conditions — certified compostable packaging meets ASTM D6400 (industrial composting) or ASTM D6868 (home composting) standards. Recyclable is more broadly accessible to consumers; compostable requires access to composting facilities.
What does FSC certification mean?
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification verifies that the virgin fiber in paperboard was sourced from responsibly managed forests that meet environmental, social, and economic standards. FSC Chain of Custody certification tracks the fiber from forest to finished packaging, enabling brands to place the FSC logo on their packaging with verified legitimacy.
Are soy-based inks really more sustainable?
Soy-based inks use soybean oil as a carrier instead of petroleum-based solvents, reducing VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions during printing. They are more easily de-inked during paper recycling, improving recycled content quality. However, the sustainability benefit is incremental — the board substrate has far greater environmental impact than the ink. Both soy inks and FSC board together represent a meaningfully more sustainable packaging system.
Can eco-friendly packaging maintain print quality?
Yes. FSC-certified SBS board and recycled content boards with clay coating maintain print quality equivalent to standard SBS board. Natural kraft has a more textured surface that produces slightly less vibrant color saturation — a characteristic that many sustainable brands embrace as part of their visual identity rather than a limitation.
Do you work with Atlanta corporate brands on packaging programs?
Yes. Atlanta's corporate community — from Fortune 500 headquarters to growing mid-market companies — uses our corporate gifting boxes, branded shipping materials, and retail packaging programs. We handle both one-time orders and ongoing packaging programs.

Do you make food packaging for Georgia's agricultural businesses?
Yes. Georgia's pecan processors, poultry producers, peanut companies, and blueberry farms use our food-safe packaging for retail, foodservice, and direct-to-consumer channels. We produce food-grade corrugated and paperboard options.

Absolutely. Our 100-unit minimum makes professional custom packaging accessible for Georgia's small businesses, farmers market vendors, artisan food producers, and early-stage startups across the state.
Do you serve Georgia's film and entertainment industry?
Yes. Atlanta's booming film production industry creates demand for branded merchandise packaging, prop boxes, gift bags for productions, and corporate packaging for entertainment companies. We serve this market regularly.
