Are Printful’s packaging materials sustainable?

Yes, we’re committed to using sustainable packaging wherever we can, and we know it matters to you too.

Our current approach

For apparel orders shipped from our in-house facilities, we use post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic packaging. PCR plastics are made from recycled materials like used shopping bags and wrapping film, which helps to lessen their environmental impact.

Here’s what that looks like:

• Outer mailers (white or grey): At least 70% PCR worldwide.
• Inner bags (clear) for multi-item orders: At least 50% PCR.
• In North America, apparel packaging is now 90%-100% PCR plastic.

PCR plastic is just as durable and protective as virgin plastic, but it’s a more eco-friendly choice. You can read more about our packaging journey here.
