Eco messaging integrated into design: "100% recyclable" as a design element
Inside printing for unboxing surprise: a message revealed when opened

Quick answer

Start with your logo in one colour on natural kraft for the most effective eco-friendly look. Add eco credentials as a design element, not an afterthought. Include your website URL and social handles. For premium brands, full-colour printing on white paper creates maximum impact. Inside printing adds an unboxing moment. Keep the address area clear for labels.

Eco messaging that works
