ECO-FRIENDLY MATERIALS FOR PACKAGING
OUR GREEN INITIATIVE
From shopping bags, to gift boxes, here at Prime Line, we offer an array of eco-friendly materials to help reduce our carbon footprint. Not only can our bags and boxes be created from natural paper and corrugated materials with up to 80% post-consumer waste, we also offer other ecological materials such as pp non-woven, cotton, muslin and jute. Our bags and boxes can always be recycled or repurposed into something new. We are proud to say that our company is apart of the SGP Partnership as well as EPI and FSC® Certified.
