What we source

Paper, flexible and compostable packaging for your industry, sourced from India.

We source paper and paperboard packaging, flexible pouches and compostable-format materials for six industries, from one restaurant's takeout order to a distributor's bulk pallet run. We deliberately don't do glass, metal or rigid plastic. Keeping the range narrow is how we know our materials, our suppliers and the compliance rules properly.

Compostable claims

Common questions

Can you match a sample I already have?

Yes. Send us the sample or the spec sheet and we'll find manufacturers who can match it. That works if you're sourcing from China today, too.

Do you do custom printing?

Yes. On corrugated we print 1–4 colour flexo. On monocartons and rigid boxes we can do offset print with foil stamping, embossing and spot-UV.

Are your food containers FDA compliant?

Anything that touches food comes from suppliers verified for FDA 21 CFR food-contact compliance, and we confirm that for each order before production starts.
