Happywrap was setup with the intention of reducing waste, starting with their reusable fabric gift wraps. Since the beginning Happywrap have been working hard to widen their ethical standards into a more holistic approach. Whether it’s workers’ rights, the environment or animal friendly they are proud of our ethical credentials:

Plastic-Free – Your order will be shipped in entirely plastic free packaging, using recycled or recyclable cardboard boxes.

Fair Trade – Lokta wrapping paper is handmade in Nepal and certified by the World Fair Trade Foundation.

Made in Britain – reusable cotton gift wraps are made here in the UK! As well as their recycled wrapping paper, gift boxes, gift tags and packaging materials. This reduces their carbon footprint by buying locally and supports fair labour laws.

Animal-free, natural materials – Natural dyes have been used for the Lokta paper and vegetable based inks are used for printing the recycled wrapping paper. The lokta paper itself, is made using the sustainable bark from the lokta shrub. This shrub naturally sheds its bark every year and continues to grow, so harvesting the bark does not damage the plant.

As the old saying goes, what goes around comes around, so give a Happywrap® with your next gift and it will pass on from person to person, around family and friends, spreading a smile on its way that will most likely make its way back to you!
