Give It a Second Life or Toss It Away: How to Recycle Our Packs
We don’t think it’s a particularly difficult dilemma, but just in case, here are a few tips for when you’re not quite sure what to do with all the materials included in our gift packs. Actually, the full recycling process is explained in detail in our environmental responsibility section, so here’s a quick summary along with a few creative reuse ideas so you don’t have to overthink it.
Give a New Purpose to Our Hampers, Packs and Containers!
Have you ever thought about reusing Bronze & Mora’s hampers and packs for a thousand different things? Our boxes fit in beautifully anywhere, and you can fill them with whatever you like. Scarves, shawls, belts, small garments, even a nice pair of shoes… Some clients also use them as a jewellery box or even a container for dried or preserved flowers.
Did your pack come with a panettone? Then don’t even think about throwing away the Weck jar—you can reuse it countless times for your culinary creations, your weekly batch cooking, or even decorate any corner of your home with beautiful flowers. The possibilities for this jar are endless.
Of course, our jam jars can be reused to store purées or other homemade preserves. Here at Bronze & Mora, we’ve used them for our babies’ vegetable purées—they’re easier to clean than plastic containers and don’t absorb odours.
Without a doubt, the only real limit is your imagination.
You can reuse your Weck jar as a flower vase.
Our hampers look stunning in any space.
The Recycling Process
Every Bronze & Mora pack includes a thousand thoughtful details that make it a truly exclusive gift. However, with so many different types of boxes, labels, shrink wraps and containers, we understand that sorting materials by type and bin is not always easy. To make things simpler, we’ve created a dedicated section where we explain how to properly dispose of the elements you no longer wish to keep. Below you’ll find a visual guide that we walk through step by step in our environmental policy:

Why Is It So Important to Know How to Recycle?
As simple as it may seem, there are still many people who dismiss the importance of recycling plastics, cardboard and glass. We’ve heard all kinds of stories around here: that municipal cleaning services dump all bins together, that everything ends up in the same landfill anyway, that it’s not really a big deal… And with so much conflicting information online, it’s easy to feel confused. The internet is full of unverified claims from both sides, and it can truly drive you mad.
To help clear things up, here’s a great article that debunks, one by one, some of the most common myths and misleading ideas about recycling.
