Being sustainable starts with you and me.


We are looking for new ways and initiatives that will benefit our planet for future generations.

Read up on how Singapore is working towards becoming a Zero Waste Nation and one of the aims is to increase the domestic recycling rate to 30% by 2030 (22% as of 2018) and here's how you can be part of it!

What you can do as an Individual

  • Only recycle packaging that are not contaminated with food or liquids.
  • Understand what can and cannot be recycled.
  • Avoid using single-use carrier bags, bottles or takeaway cups.
  • Educate your friends to spread awareness of your recycling efforts!

What you can do as an Business

  • Source your packaging from suppliers who advocate sustainable practices. 
  • Inform your customers how they can recycle the boxes you packed their goods in.
  • Switch out your plastic packaging to kraft paper packaging.
  • Opt for CAARTN's Green Packaging option at checkout.

Our Sustainable Initiatives

  • Ensuring that our products are procured from sustainable sources and made by ethical and environmentally responsible suppliers.
  • Recycle the dividers and inserts that you do not need.
  • Recycling the carton boxes sent with our inventory and upcycling them to pack your orders whenever possible.
  • (coming soon) Slightly damaged but useable products (e.g. dented, small defects) will be sold at a lowered price and profits will be donated to a charity of our choice.
