REUSE OR COMPOST!
Our ice packs are completely New Zealand made and compostable! The bags are constructed from certified home compostable biofilm and are made right here in NZ by Salt Of The Earth (SOTE) Packaging. We receive the pockets and fill them with salt water straight from the ocean right here in tora! This means if a crayfish has a snip, then they are hanging out in their salty sea water rather than any nasty toxic gels.
You can either chuck in the freezer to reuse at a later date or compost!
The icepack bags are home-compostable, wash with soapy water, cut into strips and add to your compost.
If you don't have your own home compost, visit the following links to see how you or your business can help develop the collection and diversion of organic food scraps and certified compostable packaging from landfill to microbial recycling curtesy of our friends at SOTE.
