When I owned an Etsy shop, I used to do a lot of shipping from my small home studio. Although I had some recycled envelopes, they were quite expensive, and I couldn't afford to buy customized packaging due to the high cost and quantity required. If only I had known about noissue could have saved a lot of money and made branding much easier.

What noissue offers…

Tissue: You can create your own customized tissue paper through an easy-to-use website by uploading your logo or using one of the pre-made templates. The entire design process takes three weeks to be delivered. The pricing varies depending on the color, size, and quantity of the paper you choose. The starting price for 250 sheets of single color and small size (38x50cm) is $125. It is important to note that the tissue paper is FSC Certified, which means it comes from a forest that is managed responsibly and sustainably. The paper is made from cellulose fiber, which is acid-free, eliminating the active acid pulp. This makes the ink lignin- and sulfur-free, which means they won't transfer and won't leave any chemicals behind when decomposing. The ink used in the printing process is soy-based, which produces a more vibrant color and has lower VOC levels.

Stickers: These stickers are an excellent solution for sealing tissue papers. They are printed with soy-based inks on FSC Certified, Acid-Free Paper. You can customize them according to your preference and choose between a circle or rectangle shape. They are available in two sizes, small (4x4cm) and large (5x5cm).

Mailers: Wow, these compostable mailers are really cool! It's amazing to think that we can now compost our shipping materials both at home and commercially. While finding recycled mailers is great, a 100% compostable mailer is definitely the best sustainable shipping option available. These mailers are made from a combination of corn-based biopolymers and can take up to six months to compost. The PLA used to create them makes up only 0.05% of the annual global corn crop, so it's a relatively low-impact resource. Additionally, these mailers are waterproof, writable, stretchable, printable, durable, and adhesive. Because of their durability, they can be used multiple times, and they have a shelf life of at least nine months if stored in a dark, dry place.

Tape: I've never seen customizable, eco-friendly tape before! This tape is water-activated and can be printed on non-glossy and wax-coated paper. Unlike gloss and wax, which are not biodegradable, this tape has a sustainable alternative. To activate the stickiness, you need to use a water-activated tape dispenser or a sponge. This is a great feature. Moreover, the tape is printed on FSC certified paper with soy-based inks, making it an eco-friendly option.

After experiencing their samples firsthand, I can say their quality and overall aesthetic are amazing. I highly recommend noissue to anyone with a business—or someone who has a lot of gifts to give over the holidays.
