Brandable seed envelopes

Custom Branded Seed Envelopes with Real Seeds Inside

Small 60mm x 60mm gift envelopes made from recycled or kraft paper, printed with your logo and filled with real seeds. Hand them out to clients, staff, or guests, and the seeds inside grow. Handmade in Paardeberg, Western Cape.

The Problem with Ordinary Corporate Gifts

Most corporate gifts end up in the bin within a week. Branded pens, plastic keyrings, synthetic tote bags. They sit in drawers, then they hit landfill, and your brand goes with them.

Corporate gifting should not cost the earth. Literally.

The shift toward sustainable corporate gifts is not a trend. It is a business decision. Your clients notice when you give them something that reflects your values. A seed envelope carries your brand and a living gift. The seeds inside grow into something real.

How Seed Envelopes Work

Each seed envelope is a small 60mm x 60mm envelope made from recycled or kraft paper, with seeds sealed inside. The envelope does the carrying. The seeds do the growing. Plant the seeds in soil, keep them moist, and plant in the correct season. Flowers, herbs, or vegetables grow from the seeds inside, not from the paper.

This is a promotional product built around your brand. Order the envelopes with your logo, message, or artwork printed in full colour on the front, then hand them out to clients, staff, or event guests. Every envelope carries your brand and a gift of seeds.

The whole thing is biodegradable. No plastic, no waste, no landfill. Just paper, soil, water, sunlight, and time.

Seeds grow after gifting

Open the envelope, plant the seeds inside, and keep the soil moist. Flowers, herbs, or vegetables grow in the right season. Your brand keeps growing.

Custom branded

Full colour printing with your logo, message, or campaign artwork on the front of the envelope. Your design travels with the seeds.

100% recycled paper

Made from 100% recycled commercially produced paper or kraft paper. No virgin fibre, no bleach, no chemicals.

Fully biodegradable

The envelope and the seeds inside are fully biodegradable. No plastic window, no laminate, no coating. Nothing to throw away.
