Kraft Paper Greeting Card Gift Set Box with Seed-Embedded Hang Tag

Product Overview

This kraft paper greeting card gift set box is designed for artisan stationery brands, greeting card publishers, and eco-conscious gift retailers. The box is constructed from 100% recycled 400gsm kraft board and printed with vegetable-based soy ink that is fully biodegradable. A die-cut window on the lid allows customers to see the greeting card designs inside without opening the box, while the natural jute twine closure adds rustic charm and eliminates plastic fasteners entirely. Each box includes a plantable seed-embedded hang tag — made from post-consumer recycled paper embedded with wildflower seeds (daisy, poppy, and snapdragon mix) that can be planted to grow flowers. The box is 100% recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable. Produced by Guangdong Bincai Color Printing — manufacturing premium sustainable packaging since 2003 — our 18,000 sqm ISO 9001:2015 and FSC Chain-of-Custody certified facility ensures every box meets rigorous environmental and quality standards. Ideal for greeting card sets, customizable stationery kits, wedding invitation suites, thank-you card collections, and artisan paper goods.
