A perfect idea for the DIY bride! Save money & put your confetti portions / wedding favours together yourself.
Our clear envelopes are made from biofilm, compostable plastic.
Biofilm (PLA - Poly-Lactic-Acid) is created from corn, potato or other starch/sugar sources.
Please don't confuse biofilm with oxo-degradable plastics which do not degrade in landfill. Biofilm is FULLY BIODEGRADABLE & COMPOSTABLE. This process can happen in either commercial or home composting or landfill. The biodegrading process will take around 45 days & the film breaks down into CO2, H2O & ecotoxic free biomass (compost).
Please note: Biofilm is not suitable for disposal via plastic recycling bins as it is created from renewable plant materials, not petrochemicals!
Storage of biofilm envelopes
Avoid prolonged exposure to humidity, excessive heat, moisture & light to maximise shelf life. Please note, if an envelope is splashed with water they don't start to degrade immediately - if wiped off straight away, it should do no harm!
Dimensions
Each envelope measures approx 10cm wide x 14cm high when the flap is closed. Each envelope has a 2.7cm flap. The flap has a peel & seal, self-adhesive strip.
FYI: The envelopes will easily hold around 100ml of our petal confetti ... that's around 1 litre of confetti for every 10 envelopes. Providing a handful of confetti per guest.
If you are filling with the larger-sized petals, such as freeze-dried rose petals or hydrangea petals, you may want to allow a little more per portion. Due to the larger petal size (or the clusters with the hydrangea) you won't get many petals per 100ml portion - so for a fuller appearance, you may wish to work on around 150ml per envelope.
