Latest News from the sole UK recycled only packaging company

Hi,
Yes I know the title makes it sound soooooo boring!!
But Me and Christian (and now Jess!!) do try to make this crazy packaging world more exciting.
Anyhooooooo I thought I would post the very first Tiny Box Company newsletter here so you can read what has been happening at the crazy, rock and roll world that is the Tiny Offices.

The Very First Tiny Box Company Very First Newsletter!

Hello lovely customers of ours… and non-customers too!
This is just a quick send-out to let you know what’s been happening in the ‘Tiny’ offices.
Well, due to the demand of people ringing and emailing us asking what the ‘Tiny’ founder Rachel Watkyn is up to and loving her story of how she set up the Tiny Box Company (http://www.tinyboxcompany.co.uk/) and the Fair Trade, Tiny Difference (http://www.tinydifference.com/) we now have a blog! You can subscribe to it at http://www.rachelwatkyn.com/ and find out about what goes on inside Rachel’s mind, her views on things ethical, a great story about fair trade soap that is made in the UK??!!!!! And is the UK really set up for recycling, Rachels now ‘uncool to be green’ post and there is the first of a series of Rachels ‘Why I am helping people’ postings.


Tiny Box Company News:

The Tiny Box Company is still the sole supplier in the UK of only recycled packaging, that’s gift boxes, jewellery boxes and a huge range of recycled bags.
We are continuing to live up to our promise of ‘no minimum order’ because we want to get everybody into recycling. So no matter if you order 10 or 10,000 it’s all cool with us!

Printing;

Due to huge demand we have splashed out on a printing machine so we can offer you ‘hot-foil’ printing on all our products, we have a large number of satisfied customers that is growing all the time along with Rachel’s right arm. We will be putting some pictures of our printed boxes on the Tiny Box website soon so check it to see them.

We offer a very short turnaround time and low cost on our printing. A one off £15 block charge (to have your logo/branding made into a block for printing off of) and then 5p a box or bag. You can’t get cheaper than that anywhere! (Satisfied customers include La Jewellery, Eco-Boudoir and Zanna)

New Products/Ranges Boxes;

We have extended our gift/jewellery box range to include; The ‘chocolate’ collection, the ‘metallic copper’ collection, ‘metallic blue’ collection and now black ring boxes.
Arriving soon are a new range of recycled ‘pillow’ boxes in different sizes, these can of course be printed on.

New Products/Ranges Bags;

The Tiny Box Company already has a huge stock collection of recycled bags in loads of colours and sizes. Add to this our new summer range of 100% recycled bags coming in soon in lemon, light blue and other colours. So now we can provide you with almost any colour of bag!! Some of the new ones are also ‘landscape’ i.e. they are wider rather than taller!!

What people say about us;

We were going to put a ‘testimonial’ or ‘customer comment’ page on our website but we thought that we would just have a link straight to our EBAY feedback page . We did this because there is no way we can influence the views on it, we cannot omit the bad ones and we can’t edit it – so as true as you can get feedback there. You can get to it by following the link on the Tiny Box Company website.

Speaking of EBAY, we now have a fully functioning shop there. We did this to increase awareness of the company on the internet.

Since setting up, the Tiny Box Company has grown so much that we now have 3 warehouses on the premises, with our box/bag stock now taking up 800 sq’ ft!! Most of the boxes of our boxes and bags stand 8 feet high!!! So we are bursting at the seams.

We have installed a new phone system too which means that we now have 4 lines coming in and going out as well as our fax line.

Press;
Rachel has been very busy recently on this front. She has been interviewed on BBC London and BBC Southern Counties; we have been on the front page of ‘Sustained’ magazine (http://www.sustainedmagazine.com/) where you will see Rachy looking a bit orange she says!!! http://www.allthingseco.co.uk/ did a lovely wedding piece on us. Rachel has been approached by TV stations and radio stations looking for a piece of her too.
Look out for upcoming features on Rach’ in Eco Living magazine which is free in Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons and watch out for her speaking at a number of Ethical/FairTrade events throughout the country.Also keep an eye out for our adverts in upcoming editions of Jewellery Focus, Giftware Review and Eco-Living magazine.
