Packaging

Goal: To remove 99.9% plastic from our packaging by the end of 2023.

We are still working towards our plastic packaging reduction goal. Our initial deadline was June 2022, but we are in the final testing phase.

A success this year was eliminating all external plastic strapping incoming from China, by switching to staples. We are working on making the same change with Canadian made items.

A challenge we are still working to overcome is the use of cable ties to hold parts in place within the box during shipping. We are testing our own engineered solution, a natural and biodegradable rope and a small plastic clip that can be reused by our customers.
