Thank you for your lovely review.
...Hi Cheryl,<br /><br />Thank you for your lovely review.<br /><br /> <br /><br />In defence of the excess packaging comment I thought I would just explain why we have a box as well as a tub as many people ask this question...<br /><br />The problem we have which led us to using a box was simply that there is so much EU legislation regarding the information that has to be given on product packaging we simply ran out of room on the tub label <br /><br />The boxes allow us much more space on which to print the required information. For example, the product description, the ingredients, the directions for use and the size all have to be in the same field of view and there are size limitations of the type face. We also sell in different European markets and now have to have some of the text in the host language of the country in which we sell.We couldn't possibly afford to print different labels for each country, we are too small for that. So there is a lot of information to get onto a small tub! The boxes are made from 50% post-consumer recycled board and 50% from sustainable soft-wood Scandinavian forests. The inks used are environmentally-friendly, not solvent based.<br /><br />The reason we use a plastic seal is because some lovely people who buy our products in shops have the tendency to open the lid and stick their finger in it then close the lid again and leave it on the shelf! Lovely! This plastic seal hopefully deters them from this! If we were solely a mail order company, then we would be happy to ditch the plastic seal. P.S The plastic that we use is recyclable, biodegradable and can be burnt without releasing harmful or noxious gases.<br /><br /> <br /><br />I hope that convinces you that we are truly worth a 5/5. Be great if you can explain this in your review as we really do try to be as green as we can be <br /><br />;-)Cheryl Pasquierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616020125806847507noreply@blogger.com
