Valenna's approach to sustainability is practical: make what is ordered, waste less in the workshop and pack simply. Because many products are made on demand, we do not hold large stocks that go unsold.
| Area | Practice |
|---|---|
| Production | Print on demand means we only produce what is ordered, which reduces excess inventory, unused stock and overproduction waste |
| Workshop | Planning materials and layouts to minimise offcuts, recycling paper and board waste where possible and disposing of scraps responsibly |
| Packaging | Simple personalised kraft bags, designed to be recyclable and reusable for storage or gifting, rather than bulky decorative packaging |
| Print supplies | Cardstock, sticker paper, vinyl and printer paper let makers produce small batches on demand instead of ordering mass-produced stock |
Check the product page for the material of each product. Recycled-paper pens and recycled grey chipboard are examples. See chipboard and triplex board.
Ask before ordering. See special packaging requests.
