FEATURES

• 100% recyclable
• Biodegradable in a backyard compost pile
• Containers are sturdy enough to stack 3-6 layers tall
• Earth-themed vents for air flow
• Secure hinged lid latch
• Holds up under temperature transitions with very high wet strength (same cardboard is used in beer bottle carriers)
• Containers fit in most master cartons
• Easy to hand assemble, some designs are reversible with white on one side, natural on the other
• Single and full-color printing available for just 10,000 minimum (approximately a pallet), brown side can be hand-stamped
• Ships flat saving space
• In high volumes containers are the same price as plastic and eliminate sticky labels
• Practically free machine container former available (small deposit, 3-year lease for high volumes)
• Cut microgreens in sample boxes should be consumed immediately but live microgreens on grow pads can last a week to 10 days in boxes with no watering
• Containers need to be hand-formed but we also have available a machine former for larger volume growers
• Sizes do not hold exactly the same amount as current grocery store 8 oz mounded plastic tubs but this gives you an opportunity to resize, rebrand and remarket at a better price per pound.
