Sustainability
OUR COMMITMENT
saltedjam goes beyond the surface of just adding decoration and bringing colour into your spaces. We have a constant focus on being kinder to the home we all share, while still offering high-quality prints.
Our design ethos has always put longevity first. We favour unique lasting styles over passing trends. Pieces that are timeless classics, collectible items with a long life span, that can be enjoyed for years to come.
OUR SUPPLIERS
Whilst we are based in New Zealand, our suppliers are located across North and South America, Europe, Japan, and Australia.
Our supplier of print products limits waste by using the made-to-order production approach, creating only the items our customers want. At the same time as limiting waste, they meet the industry standard for low emissions by printing our posters with Epson inks that are certified by GreenGuard.
Around 80% of customer orders are delivered in the same region they’re printed. Having suppliers close to our customers is good both for the business and the planet. Strategically located printing facilities allow for faster shipping times, lower shipping costs, and it also helps with reducing the CO₂ emissions produced when transporting orders.
THE PACKAGING
Packaging is important because it protects our products in transit, preventing damage. But we want to make sure it does its job without creating unnecessary waste. That’s why we take the minimalist approach to our packaging. Each print is carefully wrapped in silk paper and packed in a protective cardboard tube. For our framed prints, they are first wrapped in tissue paper to protect them from scratches and then wrapped in a layer of adhesive bubble wrap. Finally, they’re encased in a thicker, more durable bubble wrap to add extra protection and placed into recycled cardboard boxes ready for shipment.
