Recycled Plastic Courier Bags

When you purchase from Hotmilk, you’ll notice your order will come in a little pink courier bag, it’s important to make sure they are disposed of properly so they don’t end up in the landfill or ocean. Here is how you dispose of our packaging:

Reuse it. Our bags can be used as wet bags, food waste bags, or even nappy waste bags!

Recycle it. Can be recycled with soft plastic recycling at your local participating store.

Freight & Shipping

Our garments come without plastic hangers and are delivered in bulk boxes without single-use petrochemical plastic bags.

Some of our more delicate garments need a little extra protection when being shipped to our factories; these items are sent in individual recyclable plastic bags. Before we send out your online order, we remove your item from this bag and recycle it.

We also choose to work with courier companies who have good environmental policies and who also strive to reduce their carbon footprint.

Day to day life at Hotmilk

The Hotmilk team take care to choose products that have minimal impact on the environment, starting from the ground up with our day-to-day office life. We have a compost in our staff kitchen that goes to feeding our designer’s chickens, we opt for cleaning products that are less harsh on our environment and our bodies, and we minimise printing wherever possible.
