Uplifting, Eco-Conscious Gifts
Learn about Compendium’s Sustainable Practices
Compendium’s Sustainable Practices
We believe that choices matter. Each one is an opportunity to make the world a brighter place. That’s why we’re committed to creating gifts that are consciously crafted, with both people and planet in mind.
Ethically Sourced Paper
We utilize paper from sustainably managed forests, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.
Chlorine-Free Processing
By using chlorine-free processing to whiten paper pulp, substantially fewer harmful components are released into the environment.
Plants, Not Petroleum
Our books, journals, pop-open cards, and desk inspiration sets are all printed with soy-based inks made from renewable resources, which degrade more quickly and completely than petroleum-based inks.
Responsible Packaging
We strive for minimal waste. We choose paper over plastic whenever possible, and you won’t find bubble wrap in your box when you open your order.
Recyclable
Our Positively Green, Love Muchly, and forthcoming Make Someone’s Day cards don’t use mixed embellishments, so they are all 100% recyclable!
Powder-Coated Displays
Powder coating does not release the toxic fumes that liquid paints do. That means it’s safer for the environment and for workers too.
We know there’s always more we can do, so we’ll keep looking for ways to improve our practices. Because it will take each of us to make a difference for all of us
