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.
Green Cell Foam Disposal Process
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.
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.
