Green Gingham eco gift bag

Our product from start to finish and its intended use are all about sustainability!
- Paperless studio: the only printer we own is thermal, and we believe in using technology to its maximum capacity to eliminate the need for printed administration.
- Swing tags and promo materials printed by ecoprint.au (100% recycled post-consumer waste paper, cello/laminate free, non-toxic waterless ink, 100% recyclable & biodegradable. A tree planted for every order.)
- Second hand packaging: Our first choice is to always seek and use donated second hand packaging. Where this is not possible we invest in biodegradable mailers.

Gift Me Again uses 100% cotton fabric and where possible supporting Australian suppliers or designs of Australian surface print designers. Where this is not possible we obtain OEKO-TEX certified fabrics from sources outside Australia.

At Gift Me Again, our small community is at the heart of everything we do. We embrace social responsibility through active community involvement and promoting sustainability. As the Lids for Kids Coordinator for the Howlong region and the operator of the Howlong Preschool Recycling Program, we help recycle plastic lids, aluminum coffee pods, and oral care waste. We also use our business platform to share practical messages around achievable sustainability, encouraging our customers to explore eco-friendly alternatives, especially during Christmas celebrations. Additionally, we donate fabric offcuts to local primary schools and preschools for crafting activities, while larger fabric scraps are sent to Upparel for textile waste recycling.

At Gift Me Again, our circular model revolves around minimizing waste and maximizing the lifespan of materials. We create reusable fabric gift bags that replace single-use wrapping, encouraging a sustainable approach to gift-giving. To further support our circular initiative, we repurpose fabric offcuts by donating them to local primary schools and preschools for children’s crafting activities. Any remaining fabric scraps that aren't suitable for crafting are sent to Upparel for textile waste recycling. By promoting and practicing these initiatives, we aim to close the loop on waste, fostering a more sustainable and circular economy within our community.

Our product aims to reduce the waste associated with single-use gift wrap and normalise re-use!
