Greeting Cards

Greeting cards are one of the simplest ways to show someone you care, and even in a world where digitalisation leads the way, sending a text, or Facebook message just doesn’t come close to the personal touch of a physical card.


Today's cards are produced to suit a wide variety of occasions, from Birthday Cards and Anniversaries, to Seasonal Cards and General sentiment. No matter the occasion, a greeting card is an inexpensive, tangible token of appreciation that will last far longer than any text message could ever do. Sending an eco-friendly greeting card is an effective way to convey your wishes and feelings to another by combining beautifully formed illustrations and personal handwritten messages, making it the ultimate, all-powerful means of emotional expression.

Are Greeting Cards Recyclable?

The biggest issue with most physical greeting cards, despite popular belief, is that they cannot be recycled. All those wonderful little raised surface elements like beads, glitter and sequins, gold foils, and satin ribbons prevent the card from being recycled. Even the removal of these embellishments does not guarantee a successfully recycled card. It may surprise you to know that shiny cards contain plastic and certain inks are impossible to remove during the recycling process but it's not all bad news. At Paper Crate we have made the conscious decision to only stock recyclable greeting cards, made with vegetable-based inks so you can rest assured that the environment is only going to benefit from your selection.

Choosing the Perfect Eco-Friendly Greeting Card

Are you looking for the perfect eco-friendly greeting card for someone special? With so many options out there, it can be tough to know where to start. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you shop for eco-friendly greeting cards:

First, think about the materials the card is made from. eco-friendly greeting cards are typically made from recycled paper or sustainably paper. This is a great option if you're looking for an eco-friendly greeting card.

Second, take a look at the printing process. eco-friendly greeting cards are usually printed with soy-based inks or vegetable-based inks. This ensures that the card is made with minimal impact on the environment.

Finally, consider the message you want to send with the card. eco-friendly greeting cards often feature images of nature or animals, as well as heartfelt messages about taking care of our planet. Whatever message you choose, make sure it comes from the heart!
