Questions one doesn’t want to answer: Where do boxes come from?

Begrudgingly, I blog about our trip to the box factory. Knowing what an energy intensive process it is and how environmentally harmful it can potentially be, I can’t say I was excited. But was I pleasantly surprised! They had an enormous solar energy field to feed their machines, and a lot of the paper they used was recycled or from renewable forests plus they’ve been able to reduce the amount of paper they use while strengthening the boxes.
Go figure!
So we all started the day early with coffee or tea and muesli as usual, hopped in the muesli mobiles and headed off to our local box dealer. We got the 411 on how boxes are made, differences between materials and machines, the different processes and so on…. it was pretty rad!:) long story short we designed a new box from 100% recycled paper and using even less materiel is used to make it. Plus we have a lovely and new, eco-friendly mymuesli design so you can show off your boxes as well as your tins! Max even wore the special pants for the occasion. Check out some of the pics:
