We offer a special recorded delivery service to your workplace and offer a special guaranteed next day delivery to most UK postcodes on all orders placed before 10am Mon-Thu and 1-2 day delivery to Ireland & Europe.

For every order placed with Green Man we commit to planting new trees through our "Friends of The Green Man" woodland partners, so every new order starts a new cycle of growth.

All Green Man compostable packaging is 100% natural and 100% compostable with most items certified to European Composting Standard EN 13432.

After use our eco-packaging can be collected and taken to a specialist composting facility and processed back into compost, reducing the impact on landfill sites and the environment. This process is known as "closed-loop composting".

How can switching to Eco-packaging benefit my business?

By switching to natural packaging your business can substantially reduce its environmental impact almost overnight.

As a direct result, the toxic oil-based plastic packaging thrown away by your customers every day would be saved from landfill.

"In today's economic climate, your business success may depend on customer loyalty and your ability to stand out from the competition."
Haybury Marketing - October 2009

Many forward-thinking business owners are turning to natural packaging as responsible alternative to conventional plastic.

Eco-friendly packaging can help to distinguish your product from the competition and increase brand recognition.

It is also known to build customer loyalty with an increasing number of environmentally aware consumers.

Switching to biodegradable is easy - your packaging can remain similar to the oil-based original and independent tests conclude that packaging made from natural bio-polymer is often more flexible and stronger than conventional plastic.

Many business customers take this opportunity to re-design their packaging. The introduction of sustainable packaging across your product range or business is a great PR opportunity and demonstrates to customers that your brand is committed to a more sustainable environment.

Our specialist Marketing department can assist with marketing and PR related opportunities including sponsorship.

Green Man Packaging supplies customers in the food & beverage, catering, retail, farming, horticultural and airline industries. We also supply offices, schools, universities, hospitals, bars, clubs, exhibitions, sporting events and festivals.
