Why Organic Cotton vs Regular Cotton?

We have ALWAYS used organic cotton - made with love not pesticides! Simply put by not using toxic chemicals to grow the cotton means less poisons contaminating the soil, the farmer & your family.

We use only 100% ceritified organic cotton that is fully certified to GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standards) and is also certified Fair Trade and CPSIA (Consumer Products Safety Commission Improvement Act) compliant. Learn more about organic cotton.

The liner is made of nylon with a polyurethane coating to be resistant of water, stain, mildew and rot. The coated side faces the cotton layer and does not come in contact with the food. The nylon has been tested and is free of heavy metals & phthalates & is also CPSIA compliant.

How easy are these to clean?

VERY EASY! If they have some crumbs on them - just wipe off with your dish towel. If they need a stronger clean there are two ways - which ever is easiest for your life style. They are designed with the machines in mind, so when you go to wash them in the washer & dryer just turn the tabs down so they won't catch on other items in the laundry.  They can be hand washed with the dishes & let air dry overnight - ready by the morning for packing lunches. As with any fabric, hand washing and air drying will make them last longer. We use our wraps and bags every day & they hold up so well we are still using the same ones from the time we started the business in 2008!

Don't worry about messy sandwiches - we've had pb&j sandwiches; honey & banana sandwiches even large sandwiches with lettuce that likes to spill. The Sandwich Wraps hold it all in without any leakage - we've tossed it around for testing.

 

Made in Michigan!

All eco lunch gear products are made in Northern Michigan, USA - we don't outsource any of our items. There is a great group of talented & fun women working hard at making quality products that you will enjoy and feel good about using. We strive at keeping our carbon footprint to a minimum.

What can I put in the snack bags?

You can put anything in the snack bags that you would put in the plastic baggies except liquid type foods. Here are some of the items that the bags have held: grapes, veggies, whole pickle, cheese, apple slices, chips, graham crackers and granola. They have also been used for non-food items such as ipods, smart phones, stacks of credit cards & frequent shopper punch cards. We use ours in the refridgerator too holding chunks of cheese, lettuce & home made bread! I carry a sandwich wrap in my purse for those times when I need a 'doggy bag' at restaurants. The snack bag is the size of a plastic snack baggy & the jumbo snack bag is the size of a plastic sandwich bag. The jumbo bag is great for bulky food items like grapes & chips. It can also hold a sandwich.

What is your return policy?
