Our Eco Journey by Ginger Ray
Our Eco Journey
Our mindset changed a few years ago and we started to think how we could keep the party going in a more sustainable way.
We've been working hard to make our products more eco-friendly and for us to be more transparent.
When we first started out (whether it was right or not) being sustainable wasn't in the forefront of our minds, we were focused on creating beautiful products! A lot of our products featured foiling, plastic and weren't recyclable.

Eco Labels
You will see a few new features as you browse around our products , and one of the main things we've been working on is our eco messaging. You can also now filter a category by what is eco on The Original Party Bag Company Website
Each eco product has a sustainability tab that will break down exactly why that product is eco. For example, a lot of our confetti balloons are biodegradable, some of our products are fully recyclable and other products are reusable. You'll see these tags on the products packing

You'll be seeing more of these bubbles around our site once our new collections go live.
Tableware and Cutlery
We're exploring new ways to make our products more eco friendly. We're moving away from using plastic lamination and are now using a water based finish. Any cups with plastic lamination are clearly labelled with the EU plastic regulation label.
Our target is to move all cups and plates to be 100% plastic free!
We stopped importing plastic straws before they were banned and have always focused on releasing paper straws. More recently we have started selling metal straws. We also first sold wooden tableware back in 2015, long before any plastic bans!
Changes Through all Areas
We're making changes in all areas of our process.
We want to keep the party going, as well as protect the planet!
This is just the start of our eco journey... We have loads more we want to achieve and we are looking forward to the future!
