Earthcycle has used the design brilliance of nature to develop innovative sustainable packaging made from a renewable resource, palm fiber, to create an environmentally responsible alternative to plastic. Earthcycle is certified home compostable, is recyclable and complies with North American food grade standards.

The Earthcycle production process does not incorporate any harmful dyes, bleaches or chemicals, and makes use of a fibre formerly incinerated as an agricultural waste product. Earthcycle operates under an Ethical Fiber Sourcing Policy that requires all their fiber input be verified by SGS, an independent monitoring and testing agency, to not be grown at the expense of High Conversation Value (HCV) forests, wildlife habitats or communities.

Earthcycle products are widely available in the fresh produce aisles of major North American grocery chains, packaging such items as tomatoes, zucchini, squash, stone fruit, berries and apples plus protein products such as meat and seafood.
