Sustainability Story

Proper Good has a number of programs in place to help with sustainability, just a few: - All boxes are Sustainable Forestry certified. - All labels are both made from 100% recycled content and are at home recyclable. - We offer a free return to recycle program for our pouches. - As we're shelf stable there is no dry-ice, no padding and no insulation, we fit 7 meals in a tiny box with no overbooking and almost 100% perfect cubic efficiency due to flexible packaging. Meaning we ship meals in the most efficient way possible with minimal packaging. - For every social media post and every subscription order we donate a meal to a food bank, we've donated 1000s of meals so far.
