Packaging - sustainable is possible!

Maren Jewelery is aholistically sustainable company. That's why it was important to us from the start to design our packaging accordingly. Packaging. That's waste by definition. Something to wrap around the product you actually want and crave for protection. How can it be possible to find a new approach here How can you turn the necessary into something useful How can Maren Jewelery packaging even look like? One thing is clear: this is only possible if you have partners who share our vision.en.

You have the choice: Either we ship our handcrafted jewelry pieces in paper boxes or in beautiful linen bags – our Linen Cases.

We are fortunate to be working with the Weberei Vieböck We have found a partner for whom, just like for us, craftsmanship is more than just the mere possibility of producing something useful; for Vieböck, craftsmanship is passion. And not just since yesterday. In the weaving mill, high-quality linen has been processed into wonderful fabrics since 1832. Anyone who has ever made something with their own hands will know: The love for the raw material, the sensitivity, the honest work – the handcrafted product carries the signature of passion.

And so it is with the linens from Helfenberg. For their linen fabric, they exclusively source European flax: from Belgium, France, and the Netherlands. Flax is a very undemanding plant that does not require much water to produce its wonderful fibers. The fibers are processed into yarn by an Italian spinning mill, which is then woven and sewn in Helfenberg with great love and passion for the craft. The main rule is: "Don't lose the thread!"

The high-quality, hand-woven linen is further processed for our linen cases in Schweinfurt. More precisely: from Rehabilitation and work, a life support facility in Schweinfurt. Many hard-working hands lovingly produce the linen for the delicate cases in which we send you your new favorite piece. When the Maren Jewelery Linen Cases are finished sewing, they are embroidered with our logo, the mindful m, in Schweinfurt and then make their way to Ulm, where they are just waiting to flatter your jewelry on the way to you.

190 years of paper culture? You can tell. When Gmund Paper starts something, you can be sure that aesthetics and quality are guaranteed. They not only designed our sustainable packaging but also created an insert made of paper – instead of the usual foam. Gmund Papier stands for an innovative and ecological production. Our Paper Case is a small work of art made from fully recyclable paper.

Gmund Papier has established a novel environmental standard with its own Environmental Charter. This means that they have committed to certain principles:

A decreasing water consumption through continuous, efficient optimization measures

> Only sustainable raw materials are used: Gmund Paper is FSC® certified

In production, recycling is done diligently

> Thanks to in-house facilities, up to 75% of the energy is generated by hydropower, solar energy, and combined heat and power.

For 80 years, they have been working in Plüderhausen for sustainable alternatives in mail order. For Maren Jewellery, they have developed beautiful stickers. In addition, Etiket (yes, with a 't' – you can read why that is on their website) Schiller produces our UPS label made of compostable thermal paper.

A mindful love is printed on the beautifully woven ribbons that we include with our jewelry. They are made in Wuppertal by the Weberei Vollmer. Since 1930, quality has been the main focus for the weaving mill. With great attention to detail, our wish ribbons are made from 100 percent cotton. You put them on, make a wish – as soon as it falls off, the wish comes true!

At the latest, when you want to seal a package, you encounter a problem: adhesive tape. Plastic tape was not an option for us. How wonderful that we came across Biobiene. They developed a beautiful paper tape for Maren Jewellery and sustainably printed it with our brand logo. Our packaging is also made by Biobiene from 100% recycled paper, making it not only environmentally friendly but also shipped in a modern design.

It is the crackle of joy: The filling material, the soft bed in which your jewelry lies before you can finally wear it. At Natürlich Verpacken, we have found a partner who cares about the environment just as much as we do. Made from recycled paper, the Paper Case gently rests in sustainable cushioning material.

Show your colors with printed materials: Under this motto, Umweltdruck Berlin, formerly Druckhaus Berlin, works in an environmentally conscious and sustainable manner. For Maren Jewellery, this traditional and environmentally aware company shapes our gift wrapping paper. Its color is Blue Angel certified and thus completely in line with our vision: Holistic sustainability to the last detail.
