PackagingWe're concerned about our impact on the environment. That's why we choose recycled plastic over pulp cartons for our Heirloom Eggs.
Two important reasons for using plastic are presentation and protection. We're proud of our beautiful eggs. The plastic packaging shows off and protects them better than a pulp carton. We want our eggs to reach your refrigerator just the way they left the farm.
But the most important reason is that when our plastic carton is recycled again, it's less harmful to the environment than a recycled pulp carton. Our cartons are made from PETE1, the most commonly recycled plastic.
For the production of our cartons, recycled plastic is collected, washed, melted and reformed into egg cartons. There are no harsh chemicals. The process has no waste and no toxicity. Any excess plastic from the process is simply recycled again; and recycling plastic consumes less energy, water and chemicals than pulp.
We urge you to recycle our cartons. They can be recycled with your soda and water bottles. If you're not able to recycle them in your community, please accumulate the cartons and mail them back to us for recycling. We'll reimburse you for the shipping costs.
Thanks so much for doing your part to help our environment. |
