Our mission is to provide premium natural products in a responsible, eco-friendly, manner. All of our GreenPacks™ supplements are packaged in biodegradable bags made from sustainable plant material. The cellulose molecules that make up our supplement bags can be broken down by micro-organisms in the soil just like leaves and plants. The problems caused by plastic can only be eased when greater public awareness results in the use of eco-friendly solutions.
GreenPacks™ supplements offer the perfect solution to wasteful use-and-toss packaging. By refilling your existing supplement bottles, or our reusable dispensers, you save money and eliminate the need for plastic bottles entirely. GreenPacks™ are good for the environment and for the health of wildlife and humans alike.

Why Biodegradable Packaging Plastic bottles are made from petroleum that degrades slowly if at all. Scientists believe the average time for a plastic bottle to decompose fully is approximately 450-1000 years. However, the plastic simply breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces forever remaining a toxic threat to all life on Earth. In fact, because plastic breaks down into tiny pieces, it is virtually impossible to recover, meaning that it essentially becomes a permanent part of our ecosystem. Former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Marine trash, mainly plastic, is killing more than a million seabirds and 100,000 mammals and sea turtles each year.
Americans throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour Plastic is one of the most disposable materials in U.S. culture. We throw away our milk bottles, soda bottles, water bottles, trash bags, grocery bags, product packaging, and more every day without giving it a second thought. The dominant packaging types in the supplement industry are PET and HDPE, which are in theory recyclable. However the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cites that only 10.6% of plastic containers are actually recycled, leaving 89.4% in landfills or as trash on our Earth and in our oceans.
Premium Natural Products GreenPacks™ supplements are premium natural whole-food complexes. Our herbal formulas consist of whole herb and concentrated extracts that provide a very potent form of the herb's natural active ingredients. All our supplements are manufactured in the United States using non-irradiated herbs that are tested for proper identification, microbiologicals and heavy metals to ensure safety. Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) assure that our supplements have been made using the best manufacturing processes available. This program is based upon third party inspections of member suppliers and comprehensive audits of their GMP programs in the areas of personnel, plant and grounds, sanitation, equipment, and quality. We provide premium natural products without the plastic.
