Tree Free Packaging

Cotton rag paper is an old craft. Currency, archival documents, and fine stationery have been made this way for centuries. We use the same principle for our packaging board — supplied by Blue Cat Paper. Pre-consumer cotton offcuts from garment manufacturing are collected, sorted, pulped without chemicals, and pressed into board. No wood pulp. No bleach. No chemical dye. No surface coating.

Garment manufacturing produces enormous quantities of cotton offcuts — trim from cutting, ends from rolls — that most factories send to landfill. Cotton rag board gives them a purposeful next life. The board reduces water usage by roughly 50% compared with virgin wood pulp, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions by around 20%. The packaging earns its existence twice — once as cloth, once as a box.

Cotton rag board has a matte tooth and a warm tone that wood-pulp card cannot match. Our box is built in two pieces — an outer sleeve and an inner tray that slides out — a mechanism that gives the unboxing a considered pace. The box is the first object you encounter from House of Parvi. It should feel like the brand, because it is.
