Packaging from plants, not from plastic.
I was working in the garden recently, thinking about Digipak® trays. (I know: get a life, Micah!) A thought came to me: Instead of making these trays out of something that lasts forever in a landfill (plastic), why couldn’t they be made out of something more ephemeral – like plants?
By great coincidence, a few days later I got a call from a colleague in the Netherlands. His company had just started manufacturing a new kind of CD tray out of potato starch. This tray is made with only a fraction (about 1/6th) of the usual energy and emissions. The coolest part: The tray can either be recycled or put into your compost bin when no longer needed! It’s a natural farm product.
The Oasis Potato Tray Digipak is now finalized and ready! And, in spite of the additional manufacturing costs incurred, we’re offering it to you at no additional charge for a limited time.
This new tray is the third in our lineup of environmental Digipak tray innovations, joining our recycled, 35% post-consumer hard plastic tray and our 100% post-consumer flexible BottleTray™. (A thousand BottleTrays keeps 400 water bottles out of the landfill or incinerator!) White and recycled black trays are also available. The choice is up to you.
