Our Product Streams
Our commitment to sustainability is no secret — that's why, when it comes to packaging, we offer our clients three product streams: home compostable, recyclable, and conventional. Eye-catching, flexible, digitally printed packaging available to suit your sustainability goals – what more could you want?
RT | Compostableâ„¢
We use a proprietary combination that includes bio-based, renewable, and non-GMO materials to create environmentally friendly packaging that you can be proud of.
RT | Recyclableâ„¢
Due to demand from our customers to create better alternatives, Rootreeâ„¢ also offers flexible packaging that is recyclable under code #2.
RT | Conventionalâ„¢
Since not every product is the right fit for our other options, Rootreeâ„¢ also offers flexible packaging made from conventional materials.
*Learn more about how you can make your conventional packaging plastic-neutral.
Why all the hype about digital?
Unlimited Colour Options
No need to limit your creative team to just a few colours - thanks to our digital printing presses, you can print in an endless array of colours at no extra cost.
No Plates = Fluid Designs
Need to make a change to your design on your next run, or run a specialty print for the holidays? No problem! Because there are no printing plates involved, there are no fees for artwork adjustments on future runs – just send us your updated design and we will get it on the press ASAP!
Shorter runs, multiple SKUs
Have a whole bunch of SKUs, but don’t want to order 10,000 units of each? That’s cool – we can split up smaller order quantities into various SKUs of the same size and material. That saves you a ton of money on printing plates so you can focus your resources on your products.
Did you know?
We are always working diligently to improve our printing and production processes in order to reduce waste. One of the best ways we can accomplish this is by offering a range of custom sizes that have been formatted to best use our resources while still holding the same volume as our stock bags.Optimization means our equipment follows a simpler set-up, while creating up to 75% less waste for the same job. This means lower costs for you! Don’t worry, if these sizes don’t suit you, our team will be happy to help you determine your custom dimensions.Stock Packaging:
Not ready for the custom treatment? We understand. That's why we have a wide range of stock bags for you to choose from, in gloss and matte finishes.
We can add de-gassing valves to any stock order.
Our stock bags often ship same day, too!
Don't worry - we'll still be here for you when you're ready to go custom. Seamlessly.
