Look for the labels appearing on more of our packaging* soon!

More than 90% of our packaging can already be recycled — and we’re working to make that number even higher. One big step: we removed a plastic coating from one of our paper packages so it can be recycled in more places. Most of our PEEPS ® boxes are made from 100% recycled paper.

We’re committed to packaging that’s thoughtfully designed, responsibly sourced, and easy for you to understand. *Transparency Note: “Packaging” refers to primary and secondary consumer packaging only. Recyclability is assessed using How2Recycle ® guidelines and includes materials commonly accepted through curbside programs in the U.S. The 90%+ figure is based on 2024 sales data and calculated by weight.
