We Care about the Environment
Our daily business practices at Down To Earth Toys revolve around our commitment to striving to be "Green". From our packaging materials to our printer paper, we try to recycle and re-use as much as possible.
We do what we can to help the environment.
Packaging:
-
We used recycled boxes and packaging materials when we can (we either purchase new boxes made of recycled materials or re-use the ones we get from our manufacturers). What does that mean? The box your order comes to you in may be recycled (it might have what we like to call "character marks").
-
We re-use packaging materials that we receive (peanuts, bubble wrap etc...), instead of throwing it into the garbage.
Printer Paper: We use 100% recycled, 100% post consumer waste (PCW) paper in our day to day office use and for printing our invoices. What's so great about that? PCW defines what percentage of a paper is derived from consumer-generated paper that has been recycled from the solid waste stream. This is the most efficient reuse of paper available, and no trees are harvested for its production.
Business Cards, Flyers and Inserts: This year, we will be switching all of our marketing materials over to a company who uses only recycled stock paper and Soy based inks. We know a business card is a small thing to consider, but we believe that every little bit helps!
