Circular rhythms help conserve and restore what we love so it endures.
RECREATE
Inspired by nature’s circular rhythms, we seek to breathe new life into existing materials wherever possible.
We use 100% recycled boxes, recycle-compatible shipping labels and papers made of recycled silk and cotton linters, byproducts of textile production that normally go to waste.
Our large glass bottles are made with up to 50% recycled glass.
REUSE
We invite our community to explore creative purposes for their bottles and boxes around the home, finding new meaning in otherwise discarded materials.
RECYCLE
Where not reused within the home, we encourage you to recycle locally wherever possible.
Any hard-to-recycle and mixed material caps can be sent back to us via the Poetica Closed Loop Initiative, and our upcycling partner will transform them into objects of value for others to enjoy.
Place items in a box and once full request a prepaid envelope here and mail us the package.
ELEMENTS
Glass bottles – Reuse as vases, incense and pillar candle holders, and tea, herb and spice storage.
Caps and inserts – Recycle locally if possible or via the Poetica Closed Loop Initiative.
Shipping boxes, labels, cotton and silk papers – Recycle locally in the paper stream.
Every realm of nature
is marvelous.
