Containers and Labels
We have made an informed choice with our packaging.
Huge companies may have exquisite boxes, bottles, and labels.
We could upgrade our labels and containers and reflect the cost of doing this in our end price. You would be paying much more for your product.
We make our own labels, and this is cost effective for both you and us. This also allows us to provide a wider range of product, and make necessary changes as needed.
What is inside the bottles:
Our interest is what the bottle contains. We use quality simple ingredients, so you are getting a far superior product for a fraction of the price, and not harming yourself by exposing your body to harmful chemicals. We absorb up to 60% of what goes onto our skin. Many of these harmful chemicals are not included on labels!
Buying Country Herbals products means you get modest packaging, along with our good name we have built up over the past almost 2 decades. Also our guarantee to you to refund or exchange if you ever have a problem with our products. We value your feed back, so please feel free to offer your comments, we would love to hear from you!
Recycled Containers
We often use recycled containers for pet products.
These are containers which have been used for shampoo or conditioner, which some customers have, at their expense, sent their empty containers back to me for re-use. It is far more cost effective for me to use new containers than to spend time removing labels and thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing bottles for re-use. I do this as I believe that even though the use of plastic is very bad, re-using existing plastic helps a bit.
Packing Parcels
When I send liquids that can potentially leak, I am under obligation to use snap lock plastic bags for the sake of other customers, NZ Post and Courier Companies, and the like. If my parcels leak and damage other items in vans or trucks, addresses disappear, and stickers fall off, I am responsible for this. So my apologies to customers who would like their entire parcel plastic free, it not possible for these kinds of items. There are many other items which are. So, you now have the choice when you put your order in, to tick different boxes or make a comment in the comments box with your preferences.
