THE RAW ZONE
About the Raw Zone
We have introduced The Raw Zone because we are concerned about our planet and we want to make a difference, however small. We have started with a few products and hope to grow this aspect of the business, in time.
We have worked hard to minimise the packaging in The Raw Zone, and any packaging we have used is 100% recyclable or biodegradable and/or compostable.
The only packaging we use in The Raw Zone includes:
Corn starch bags – fully compostable
Paper bags
Class
Popcorn – we use popcorn as protective packaging, air popped daily for freshness make it safe for human consumption and purrfect as an occasional treat for pets.
We have minimised the labelling on or Raw Zone products by using stamps instead of vinyl labels. Where needed, a full ingredient list or instructions can be viewed on the caferaw.co.za website
