Travel tin

The material of the travel tin consists of wood chips and natural binders (biopolymers). The FSC-certified wood comes from industrial and agricultural by-products and makes up a major part of the material. Biopolymers used are mainly raw materials or second-generation biomass that do not compete with food production, such as polyhydroxy fatty acids (PHA) and cellulose. PLA may also be included in small amounts. The material of the travel tin is shapeable, functional, and can be injection molded - just like conventional plastic. The material is robust, durable, and generally similar to high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

You should clean the tan with a bit of water and mild soap. Please wait until it has dried entirely before your refill.

The travel tin should be disposed of via yellow garbage tin, as industrial composting is currently not appropriately implemented in Germany. However, we are convinced that the travel tin is a long-lasting product and, if well cared for, will only need to be disposed of after a long period of use.

Regarding the environmental sustainability of the travel tin, it is noteworthy that the material biodegrades faster in the environment than pure PLA, which is often used for industrially compostable packaging. The travel tin is industrially compostable and does not leave microplastics behind when it enters waterways or soil, so it is not harmful to the environment. The material biodegrades in open habitats and under anaerobic conditions but nevertheless should be disposed of properly.
