We are proud to be transitioning towards more sustainable shipping materials and incorporating biodegradable insulation into our shipping process. Our insulation is a compostable, biodegradable, eco-friendly packaging and insulation made from non-GMO corn.Â
Green Cell Foam Disposal Process
Â
2. Remove your cookies and ice pack from the box. Set your insulation panels aside. Cut and remove the film surrounding the insulation panels, recycle the film with other #4 or single stream plastics. Please note that not all of the insulation is covered with film. If yours does not have film, skip ahead to step 3.

Â
Our insulation is derived from corn starch and is safe for drains, septic systems and waste treatment centers. It is 100% compostable and will biodegrade in 60 days or less when in a moist soil environment. The insulation panels burn cleanly and safely.
