Le Mark has supplied PureChimp with new custom-printed paper packaging tape. We spoke to Dean Legg, Founder, PureChimp, about why they trusted Le Mark with this eco-friendly order.

PureChimp products

PureChimp makes feel-good matcha tea and 100% natural skin care products. Their main goal has been to provide high quality, authentic Japanese matcha tea at an affordable price. Driven by doing good for both their customers and the planet, they donate 5% of their profits to the charity savethechimps.org. This money has been used to provide lifetime sanctuary for chimpanzees in Florida. In addition, 95% of the products on their website are packaged in recyclable glass or paper.

The need for paper tape

“We wanted to increase the brand visibility on our customers’ deliveries. At the same time, we wanted to move from plastic to an eco-friendly tape,” said Dean. “We are always looking for the next forward-thinking change and wanted to put the environment first. Therefore, we needed to find someone who could custom print on a paper tape.

“Following an online search, I sent an enquiry through Le Mark’s website and they quoted me within 30 minutes. We chose to order from Le Mark because they offer good value for money on an eco-friendly option.

“The final printed tape is fantastic. We have been able to move to an eco-friendly option without compromising on quality. It has also been great to easily add our branding to boxes and other packaging.

“Le Mark’s customer service offers good communication with quick response times. We like to work with companies that care about their customers.”

The future for print

“We are delighted to be able to offer the same quality custom printing on paper tapes,” said Jody Rice, Print Team Leader. “Our customers are increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of their businesses. As a result, we’ve seen a large increase in enquiries for paper-based and biodegradable packaging tape. We were able to use FSC® certified paper for PureChimp’s order, and we can also offer biodegradable water-activated adhesives. PureChimp’s order shows how branding your packaging tape can still be stylish and planet-friendly.”
