What is it and why is it celebrated?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Today we\u2019re talking about our new initiative \u2013 packaging-free ordering from the Sokisahtli online shop. For years now, we\u2019ve been striving to be as environmentally conscious as possible and have wanted to do our bit to reduce the amount of unnecessary packaging waste in the world. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why, together with you, we\u2019re running a trial period <strong>throughout April and May<\/strong>, during which ALL products ordered from our online shop will be packaging-free. We\u2019ll be testing this with you to see how it works and whether we could continue with this approach in our online shop in the future.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size\" id=\"kuidas-see-sokisahtli-pakendivaba-tellimine-toimib\"><strong>How does Sokisahtli\u2019s packaging-free ordering work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When you place an order via our online shop, the packaging-free option is automatically selected. This means that when we prepare your order, we remove the product labels and immediately return them to the warehouse, where they\u2019ll be reused on subsequent products. And that\u2019s exactly how it works \u2013 we can even let you in on a little secret: how can you tell whether the packaging is already on its umpteenth cycle of use? \u2013 Well, we simply stick new product barcode labels onto the existing labels. And that\u2019s why you might find, for example, two barcode stickers on top of each other on a label.<\/p>\n<p>With socks and thicker tights, it\u2019s simple: a black product label with the Sokisahtli logo goes straight back into use in the warehouse, and the labelled products end up hanging on the racks in our shops, waiting for their new owners. It\u2019s also possible to leave the packaging at the shop when making a purchase, and many of our customers do take advantage of this option.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a bit more complicated with socks and delicate tights. With these, we remove the plastic wrap and recycle it. We place the delicate item between sheets of paper. When you receive the product, all you need to do is put the paper in the recycling bin or with your packaging waste \u2013 and that\u2019s another small task sorted.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/pakendivaba-est-sub.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\" id=\"millised-need-pakendivabad-tellimused-siis-valja-naevad\"><strong>So what do these packaging-free orders look like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/en\/new-products\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/ssc-opt\/e194ea28a9057dbb99c20b88494648e4-399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f.webp\" alt=\"FOX sokid pakendiga\" class=\"wp-image-7167\" title=\"sokisahtel-fox-puuvillased-sokid\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/ssc-opt\/e194ea28a9057dbb99c20b88494648e4-399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-300x300-1.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-150x150-1.png 150w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-768x768-1.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-780x780-1.png 780w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-600x600-1.png 600w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-550x550-1.png 550w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-370x370-1.png 370w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/399e91f2-4258-4e5b-bce6-2587c553ad7f-255x255-1.png 255w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" id=\"h-fox-sokid-pakendiga\">The socks come with a plastic hook and paper packaging.

When we send you a parcel, we\u2019ll reuse the packaging wherever possible. Similarly, if you receive a box, carton or bag from us, please open it up \u2013 if you need to send a parcel yourself, you can reuse it too.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth cutting plastic packaging neatly open with a pair of scissors; you can then reuse it, for example, to send a book or some chocolate to a friend. Reuse is in fashion and becoming increasingly popular. So let\u2019s keep up with the trends and help keep the planet cleaner!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"hmm-aga-kui-ma-ikka-tahan-tooteid-saada-pakendiga-mis-siis-saab\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Hmm, but what if I still want my products to come with packaging?<\/h3>\n<p>From 22 April, we\u2019ll be sending all orders from the Sokisahtli online shop packaging-free. However, if you definitely want packaging around your socks or a pair of tights, you can <strong>tick the<\/strong> relevant <strong>box when ordering<\/strong> and everything will arrive neatly packaged, ready for gifting, for example.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:18px\" id=\"aga-kuidas-ma-tean-siis-et-millest-mu-pakendivaba-toode-koosneb-ja-kuidas-ma-teda-hooldada-saan\">But how will I know what my packaging-free product consists of and how to look after it?<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to socks and tights, care and washing are much simpler than with delicate jumpers, expensive fur coats or other textile products. Naturally, it\u2019s best to wash delicate items by hand (such as tights and sheer stockings) or in a laundry bag on a hand-wash cycle.<\/p>\n<p>For socks, it\u2019s also best to wash them on a hand-wash cycle at a temperature of up to 30 degrees. This is particularly true for products made from merino, angora and alpaca wool, which may shrink if washed in warmer water. You can find the care instructions on our website <a href=\"\/blog\/suuruste-tabel-ja-nouanded-kuidas-hooldada-soki-ning-sukatooteid\/\">HERE<\/a>. And the product composition is always listed in the description on the product page.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:18px\" id=\"aga-lopmatuseni-ei-saa-pakendit-ju-kasutada-moni-laheb-katki-mis-siis-teete\">But you can\u2019t use the packaging forever, some of it will break \u2013 so what do you do then?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, that\u2019s true. We actually hold a record here: the most times we\u2019ve managed to reuse a sock tag is a whopping five times \u2013 it just keeps coming back from the shop. But it\u2019s true that the labels wear out, and in most cases the packaging can be reused 2\u20133 times. We collect any labels that are no longer usable and send them for recycling as packaging waste.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/ssc-opt\/7afea122969c16d31479873de1ea04bb-e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-1024x853-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7153\" title=\"Pakendivaba\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/ssc-opt\/7afea122969c16d31479873de1ea04bb-e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-1024x853-2.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-300x250-2.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-768x640-2.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-780x650-2.png 780w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-600x500-2.png 600w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-550x458-2.png 550w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-370x308-2.png 370w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-255x213-2.png 255w, https:\/\/www.sokisahtel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/e394bc25-f78c-4b70-af2e-5c4869f32cd3-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"aga-transpordipakendid\" style=\"font-size:18px\">But what about transport packaging?<\/h3>\n<p>For transport packaging, we use cardboard and paper packaging, which you can place in the paper and cardboard collection bin.

When ordering from a shop, your parcel will usually arrive in a paper bag.<\/p>\n<p>You can take the packaging in which your online shop order arrives to a packaging collection point free of charge.

Here are some figures showing the resources saved per tonne of yarn. Energy savings amount to 6,194 kW per tonne \u2013 that\u2019s 87.6% less \u2013 throughout the entire production process; water savings amount to 18 cubic metres per tonne; and, overall, 55% fewer resources are used in production.
