Where do I actually source compostable or plastic-free packaging in India without blowing my per-order cost?
Brown Living and Mindful are the easiest starting points for small-MOQ compostable and plastic-free packaging in India, cornstarch/sugarcane mailers, kraft tape, seed-paper wraps, now priced closer to poly mailers than they used to be, and Bambrew is the name to know once you're big enough for custom design work (it already supplies brands like boAt and Decathlon). The cost premium is shrinking but not zero, and any biodegradation claim (90-180 days is typical) should come with the supplier's actual certification, not just their marketing page, since that claim falls under ASCI's green-claims scrutiny too.
