Teemana Packaging: Quality products in environmentally friendly packaging – for a green and sustainable future

At teemana, we stand for sustainable, ecological, and responsible business practices— and this is reflected in every step of our production cycle.

From the natural cultivation of our plants, where we rely exclusively on natural pesticides and do not use any mineral fertilizers, to climate-neutral shipping for all your orders – we remain true to our values of sustainability and tradition in all our actions. Because it is our highest principle to conserve the resources of our God-given planet and thus contribute to the healing of our earth.

Of course, we also follow this principle in our packaging, which we base on the so-called zero-waste principle . But what exactly is the zero-waste principle? And how do we support environmentally friendly practices with our packaging—both that of our herbal products and that of our ointment? You'll learn all about it in this article.

ZERO Waste literally means "zero waste" or "zero waste." It is a philosophy or way of life that aims to produce as little waste as possible—or, ideally, none at all. The central idea behind it is to conserve environmental resources by considering the entire life cycle of a product— just as we do with our packaging.

The ZERO-Waste principle includes the following points:

• Avoid: First things first—avoiding unnecessary waste. This means consciously questioning your consumption and choosing long-lasting, sustainable products—so as to prevent unnecessary waste from being created in the first place.
• Reduce: Sometimes, however, waste cannot be completely avoided. In these cases, it's all about reducing it as much as possible. This means using less packaging, fewer disposable products, and fewer unnecessary purchases. Conscious and economical use of resources is crucial to reducing the amount of waste we produce.
• Reuse: This is about using the things you already have for as long as possible and, if necessary, repairing them instead of throwing them away. In today's "throwaway society," we often tend to quickly dispose of things even though they are still usable—either for ourselves or for others.
• Recycling: The last, but no less important, aspect of the zero-waste principle is recycling. Anything that can't be avoided, reduced, or reused should at least be recyclable—that is, repurposed into new products. Recycling conserves natural resources and ensures that less unnecessary waste ends up in nature or landfills.
