Previously, the products were delivered in compost bags made from plant-based materials (which return to the soil) , but we have discontinued their use due to concerns about their strength and weather.
In addition, the outer box We used to send items in reused cardboard , but we have stopped using them to prevent bed bugs from breeding in cardboard (don't worry, we do not have bed bugs in our store).
We use new cardboard and outer bags.
Please understand that we will make changes to suit the situation at the time to the extent possible.
We use paper as much as possible to cushion fragile items.
When I run out of stock, I sometimes use bubble wrap (reused).
The tags and some of the paper are made from recycled paper from origami cranes that was recycled as part of the Hiroshima City-approved ``Original Crane Recycling Model Project''.
(Approximately 10 million origami cranes (approximately 10 tons) are collected each year, making storage and maintenance a challenge.)
A portion of the proceeds from this recycled paper will be donated to Hiroshima City's peace contribution projects.
[About gift wrapping]
Through gifts, in a natural way
I thought it would be nice to be able to participate in reducing flower waste and the problem of flower waste.
Dried flowers used for wrapping
We use flowers (Ross flowers) that will be discarded at flower shops.

Even if it is no longer sold, it can still be used as a dried flower.
You can still enjoy Rossflower
A mix of seasonal flowers and paper strings and vegetable-dyed strings are added.
As with normal packaging, we try to use packaging that produces as little waste as possible.
We do not include receipts or price tags, so don't worry when giving as a gift.
To continue gift wrapping in the future
We are in the process of charging a fee, but currently it is available for free.
Please feel free to enter your preference for wrapping in the notes section when ordering.
