Sustainability

At Grounded, we’re committed to empowering businesses to find the most sustainable packaging solution that exists for each of their needs.

Every single product we feature has been strictly vetted for both its quality and its environmental impact. Our pledge to be completely transparent means that customers have total visibility on these products’ production, supply chain and life cycles.

Our ethos derives from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s vision for a ‘Circular Economy’ where all packaging is 100% reusable, recyclable, or compostable and where Governments and businesses both play a role in end of life infrastructure and objectives.
