Hello 2020, goodbye plastic

January sees the launch of Ling Design Group’s 2020 Christmas range, which captures the magical spirit of the festive season in one collection of distinctive and unique greetings cards.

Our big news is that for Christmas 2020 we’ve made significant steps towards improved sustainability in boxed cards thanks to the removal of all acetate box lids, equating to 3.5 tonnes of plastic. The acetate will be replaced with cardboard packaging, engineered to protect the integrity of the card ensuring it can still be displayed to maximum effect in store.

In light of the increased concern about the environment and the impact of single-use plastics we feel as a team that we must make any changes we can that don’t compromise product quality.

We know our customers care about the environment, but they also have the challenge of ensuring product is protected and preserved from damage whilst in store. The changes we have made to our boxed ranges actually look even better and the designs really stand out. The packaging still protects the card and we’ve reduced our use of plastic significantly across the whole season, so we feel these changes are a win-win across the board!
