We are rolling out a styrofoam alternative that will provide sufficient insulation for our FedEx shipments with more convenient and environmentally friendly disposal options for our home winemakers.
It has passed our test and we are ready for your feedback. We are offering free shipping on one pail of grapes/juice from our Chicago warehouse for up to three customers in the continental US. The order must be shipped on Wednesday the 12th. Call 510.527.3675 to or email grapes@brehmvineyards.com to order.
Easy Disposal
Our new foam is made of bio-based materials. It is biodegradable and water soluble. To protect it from moisture, it is wrapped in a thin plastic bag. When you are ready to dispose of the foam, simply remove the plastic lining and throw the foam in your compost or dissolve it in water. Recycle the plastic lining with your plastic bags.
The foam is Compostable in any residential or commercial compost facility. It will biodegrade in 60 days or less when in a moist soil environment.
Place large pieces of Green foam into a bucket of water and let it sit overnight. Pour mixture onto plants- it’s great plant food!
Foam dissolves in water- put small pieces in the sink and watch it “melt” safely down the drain; it even biodegrades in seawater and freshwater!
