Frequently Asked
Questions

This is our willingness to solve any question you might have regarding our solutions.

How much will creating a customized sample cost, and how long it will take?

From the point that you can deliver clear size specifications for your product or relevant packaging, the design and production process are straightforward. Cost is calculated individually based in the size and shape of the packaging and will be deducted from your overall cost should you sign a regular order contract.

Can I order non-custom packaging, and what is the minimal order quantity for it?

Where is your production located, and where can you ship orders?

Our current production site is located in Malaga, Spain, and we have clients throughout Europe, including non-EU countries. We do not work with Russia and Belorussia. We can discuss shipment outside of Europe ad hoc, if your order exceeds our minimal order quantities.

Can your packaging start biodegrading before it gets in the hands of our customers?

S.Lab packaging is durable, water-resistant, fire retardant and heat-resistant, cold temperatures, sun or humidity. In order to start biodegrading, it needs to be broken into at least 2 parts and thrown into the soil.

What are the perfect storage conditions for your packaging?

S.Lab packaging doesn’t require any special conditions for the storage.

What are the best ways to dispose of your packaging?

Break it into pieces and throw it into your garden compost, or dispose of it into your organic waste.

Can you do it in a different colour or add a logo on it?

We do not currently use any colour additives. The colour of the packaging will resemble what can be seen on the photos of our website. We can press a logo on the packaging if required.

Can this eco friendly food packaging provide insulation for temperature-sensitive products?

Yes! Our sustainable food packaging provides insulation for temperature-sensitive goods. It works well for meal kits, specialty foods and chilled products that require protective cushioning.

Is your biodegradable packaging suitable for brands reducing plastic in food logistics?

Our biodegradable packaging helps food brands replace EPS in protective shipping solutions. It protects the product during delivery and fully composts after use, reducing landfill waste.
