GREEN-er gifting: A sustainable solution

At Toggle, we’re proud to partner with Green Gift Cards who back in 2006, embarked on a mission to revolutionise the card industry. Their goal is both simple and ambitious: replace plastic PVC cards used for gifts, loyalty, memberships, and more with a natural and sustainable alternative.

Why is this so important? 

🌲 36 billion plastic cards are produced annually, emitting an estimated 500 million tonnes of CO2.

🌲A typical virgin plastic card emits 21g of carbon, whereas a paperboard card only emits 0.66g.

The eco-friendly alternative

Green Gift Cards' paperboard cards are not just an eco-friendly alternative; they are also award-winning, certified biodegradable, compostable, and recyclable. The trees used to make these cards are grown and harvested from sustainable forests managed by Holmen Iggesund, a top-tier paperboard supplier known for their commitment to the environment.

The journey from tree to gift card

Each tree used for production is part of a cycle of growth and replanting.

✅For every tree harvested to create your unique Toggle gift cards, three new trees are planted.

✅Currently, Green Gift Cards is planting 40 million new trees each year.

This ensures not only the continuous growth of forests but also a significant reduction in carbon footprint. Trees play a vital role in absorbing CO2, and through responsible forestry, Green Gift Cards is really on our planet’s side 🌍❤️

Green Gift Cards isn’t just about producing eco-friendly cards; it's about leading a change. Their efforts in sustainability have been recognised with multiple awards, highlighting their dedication to creating a greener world.
