Sustainability

All Paule products have been carefully handcrafted one by one in New Zealand or manufactured in very small quantities, allowing us to reduce waste and only produce what is truly needed. 

We believe that investing in special, well considered pieces, allows you to live better with less. All Paule products are made with this in mind. 

  

Packaging

We utilise reusable and recyclable packaging and are always reviewing options to reduce wasteful packaging as much as possible. Currently, 100% of the packaging materials used to ship your Paule pieces are recycled and on their second life already.  

We also re-use all cardboard packaging that we receive shipments in, if they are still in a condition well enough to be used again. 

All other packaging (Eg. jewellery boxes and gift wrapping) are intentionally and completely unbranded as we want to encourage customers to save and reuse them. We don't believe packaging like that should be seen as single use, and we hope that keeping them free of branding makes customers more likely to give them a second use.

Currently, our jewellery pieces come in an unbleached and unbranded box with a complimentary baby blue polishing cloth.

 

Materials

We're currently sampling textile & homeware collections to come so stay tuned!

In terms of fabrics, we'll do our best to use as many natural and organic materials and fibres as possible. As well as utilising recycled and deadstock options. Every material able to be sourced locally in New Zealand will be. 

All fabric off-cuts, regardless of size, get collected and put aside. They then get to be recycled later when we use them for other creative projects. Follow us on instagram (@paule__store) if you're interested to see more. 

 

Our environmental approach has room to evolve so any suggestions or recommendations on how we can improve is absolutely welcome.
