Easter’s hopping toward us, bringing with it the first signs of spring and the perfect opportunity to connect with your team. But let’s face it – another box of chocolate eggs might not have the impact you’re hoping for.
We believe in spreading the love with gifts that matter. Gifts that make your team feel valued and appreciated while also reflecting your company’s commitment to sustainability. That’s why our team have pulled together this guide to creating sustainable Easter gift boxes that your team will treasure long after the Easter bunny has hopped away.
Why choose sustainable Easter gifts?
Traditional Easter gifts often come with excess packaging, single-use plastics, and items that quickly end up in the bin. By opting for sustainable alternatives, you’re not just giving a gift – you’re making a statement about your company’s values.
Eco-friendly gift boxes are appreciated on multiple levels:
- They show genuine care for recipients
- They demonstrate your company’s commitment to sustainability
- They create lasting positive impressions rather than fleeting moments
What makes an Easter gift box sustainable?
A truly sustainable Easter gift box considers every element:
- Materials – Made from recycled, recyclable, or biodegradable components
- Longevity – Contains items that will be used again and again, not thrown away
- Purpose – Every item serves a genuine function for the recipient
- Production – Created with ethical manufacturing processes
- Packaging – Minimises waste while still looking beautiful

Grow-Your-Own Kits
Spring is the perfect time for planting. Branded seed packets, small planters, or complete grow kits are perfect additions to Easter boxes. They symbolise growth and new beginnings while giving your team something to nurture.
Wildflower seed bombs make a lovely addition to Easter packs – each bloom serving as a reminder of your company while supporting local pollinators.
Reusable Spring Essentials
As the weather improves, your team will appreciate items they can use for outdoor activities:
- Branded reusable water bottles in spring colours
- Sustainable bamboo lunch boxes for outdoor picnics
- Eco-friendly canvas totes for market trips
- Collapsible coffee cups for morning walks
Mindful Moments
Easter can be a time for reflection and mindfulness. Consider including:
- Sustainable journals made from recycled paper
- Plantable pencils that grow into herbs when they’re too short to use
- Small indoor plants in biodegradable pots
- Ethical tea selections with a branded reusable tea infuser
Ethical Treats
We’re not suggesting you abandon the chocolate tradition entirely! Just choose options that align with your sustainable values:
- Fair-trade, plastic-free chocolate
- Locally-made treats in recyclable packaging
- Small-batch, artisanal goodies from ethical producers
