Caps Cases is committed to providing environmentally sustainable packaging.

Our environmental responsibility is something we take very seriously at Caps Cases, both as an individual business and as a global industry. That’s why we strive to do everything possible to minimise our own carbon footprint.

Our commitment to the continued challenges of reducing our impact on the planet has become part of our everyday management systems. This is supported by our certification to ISO 14001:2015 for Environmental Management and awareness.
