Sustainable Boxes for the Next Generation

A growing number of businesses are focusing on quality products and packaging that are beautiful, responsibly sourced and built to last. Sustainability is especially important when your offer is focused on nurturing the next generation.

Introducing Natural Baby Box

Natural Baby Box was founded by Hannah, a mum with a background in mental health and child development. When leading mother and baby groups, she demonstrated the importance of play. Whilst fun, play is a vital way to explore the world and it provides a wonderful bonding opportunity for families.

Did you know that 80% of human brain development occurs in the first three years of life?

Many parents were keen to learn ways to encourage their little one’s development. The difficulty is that they are faced with an extensive range of products. Bright, plastic toys are designed to attract children, but their play value is often limited. Hannah favours toys that inspire exploration and creativity. She recommends toys made from natural materials, like wood, which are sustainably sourced and longer-lasting.

Natural Baby Box Development boxes support early years home learning. Inside the box is a selection of quality toys for specific age groups. These are accompanied by ideas for parent and baby play activities that enable children to use all senses. As an example, take a look at the 6-9month baby development boxes.

Having launched this side of the business, Hannah also created baby gift boxes. These include books, organic cotton clothes, plastic-free toys and organic baby products. They are a delightful gift for new parents.

“I ordered the rattle gift set for a friends baby shower. The whole ordering process was first class very helpful. It arrived so quickly just the day after placing my order. It was beautifully packaged and the recipient absolutely LOVED it. All the contents were high quality and just as the images showed. I would definitely recommend Natural Baby Box, especially if you are looking for a gift that is extra special. I cannot fault it at all perfect service and perfect gift! Thank you”

– Leah, Natural Baby Box Customer

As a mother to two daughters, Hannah knows how precious those early years are. Children grow and develop so quickly and it is wonderful to keep a record of important milestones and childhood favourites. For this reason, she also offers beautiful memory cases for storing a collection of treasured items.

Sustainable Packaging Solution

Natural Baby Box products are sold online, so Hannah needed printed shipping cartons for deliveries. For her, the priority was finding a packaging supplier that shared her environmental values. She wanted to know that the cardboard came from recycled and FSC approved sources. Having found the Aylesbury Box Company website online, she was impressed by the strong sustainability message.

With a range of products to sell, Hannah wanted a solution that would meet her multi-purpose requirements. Following discussions, we created a small and large version of a bespoke box that would accommodate her range.

The next consideration was print. Following the natural, eco values of her brand, she decided on unbleached brown boxes with a simple print in the brand colours. The challenge was that the tone of the mint green altered on the brown background. We adapted the print colour, to produce a finish that is cohesive with the brand.

“Receiving the boxes tied our business idea together. Aylesbury Box Company came up with solutions and ticked all the boxes. We were well informed and they were delivered on time. They are so well made and that means parents can reuse the boxes. I’ve used some for storing clothes in the loft.”

Hannah uses shredded paper to protect items inside the printed boxes and her chosen courier is carbon neutral. We love the natural simplicity of this packaging design and know that new parents will be delighted to be on the receiving end of this delivery.

“We ordered the deluxe boxes for some of our colleagues and their families. The boxes were absolutely beautiful, such a lovely gift. They were beautifully wrapped and such a lovely gift to give. One of the mum’s told me after 3 babies this was the nicest gift she had been sent; the box was packed full of lovely products. I would say the boxes are really great value for what you get. I will definitely order again.”
