Wrapping gifts is a world-wide tradition, but at a price:
What a waste!
Wrapping paper and shopping bags alone account for about 4 million tons of trash annually in the U.S. alone.
Around the world
Over the holidays, about 227,000 miles worth of wrapping paper get thrown away—enough to circle the world 9 times!
Unrecyclable?
Unacceptable. Most wrapping paper cannot be recycled because it's dyed, laminated, or contains non-paper additives.
Why Wrappily?
Reuse and preserve
A piece of newsprint can be recycled up to 7 times! Its printing requires less energy and uses gentler, soy-based inks.
Promote local businesses
Our gift wrap is printed on local newspaper presses. We get a kick out of finding a new purpose for these old presses.
Gift happily
Our paper may be recycled, but our patterns are always fresh! Your gifts will look great, and not at the expense of the environment.
