BOXING CLEVER - Archroma

Do enhanced packaging dyes have to come at the expense of sustainability?

WHAT WE LOVE:

Boxes with beautiful, durable earth tones
Paper-based packaging that help us reduce waste

BUT DID YOU KNOW?

Dyes commonly used to produce packaging tend to ‘wash off’ during production and fade away when exposed to light
Manufacturers have to oversaturate the pulp with dyes to try and compensate
