MiaDonna & Company is now packaging every order in our very stylish Eco friendly gift bags. I know what your thinking, recycled paper right? Wrong, these bags are made from stone fiber! They are paper less bags. This is Calcium Carbonate using a unique waterless paper making technology. This process involves no chemical bleaching and produces no toxic gas emissions or hazardous waste. An average of 4 metric tones of wood chip – or approximately 23 large trees – is utilized to produce a metric ton of traditional wood-pulp paper. Stone paper uses no wood-pulp. We love these bags and think they make a wonderful addition to the MiaDonna product line as part of our commitment to the earth.

MiaDonna & Company was founded by consumers for consumers to be an advocate for you, global communities and the earth. If you love green or are planning a green wedding, take sometime and see what we are doing in order to become the greenest fine jewelry store ever created!

MiaDonna is now using Soy Ink’s in all its printed materials. Including all informational documents, advertising literature, brochures and catalogs. There is an indisputable fact that Soy Ink is an incredibly healthy when compared to traditional inks, is earth friendly and is an affordable option that perfectly matches the MiaDonna product line and our company commitment to the earth.

The overall benefits of Soy Ink are quite impressive and soy ink in itself is a renewable resource. Soybeans are readily available at low costs and Soy Ink is considerably low in VOC’s (Volatile Organic compounds). Nearly half of the Soy beans being produced require no additional irrigation and by simply growing, during there life cycle, they will temporarily reduce carbon dioxide and green house gases.

Some additional benefits that we receive by switching over to Soy Ink is a lower overall cost, Incredibly Vibrant colors, Low Rub-off, its laser proof and is stable. Even if you remove the idea of being green or creating any kind of sustainability, Soy Inks still make good business sense. We are adding this resource to our company in order to become more earth friendly, sustainable and environmentally aware of our products, process’s and daily business practices. We are excited and will continue to look for many more green Eco friendly resources.  Here is a link to our informational source if you would like to read more on the benefits of Soy Ink. Soya.be

While most of you may already know that our MiaDonna brand jewelry cleaner comes FREE now with every order we also wanted to tell you about why we chose this particular jewelery cleaner.

First off our jewelry cleaner uses a very unique non toxic formula which was a must for us and still achieves the same results as more traditional environmentally harmful brands.

Secondly, By sending our jewelry cleaner to you in the form of a concentrate, that you mix yourself, we decreases its shipping weight thus allowing our carriers, like UPS, FEDEX and USPS, to use a little less fuel by lightening their over all load.

Lastly, Because the formula is non toxic the plastic container itself received a recycling rating of #1. Meaning it falls within the same recycling guide lines of beverage and food bottles and containers. So it is recyclable itself and accounts for 24% of the products being recycled each year.

So, Please enjoy your free cleaner and be proud that your are cleaning your Eco Friendly Engagement Ring or Wedding Ring Set with Eco Friendly cleaner.

Carbon Neutral Shipments: Every order we ship helps to rebuild forests.

MiaDonna & Company is completely committed to being as green and eco friendly as possible.

We are now working with The Nature Conservancy in order to offset the CO2 created from our shipping process by investing in reforestation projects. So from now on, for every shipment we make to you, we will plant at least one tree through our partnership with The Nature Conservancy. And yes, every order still gets shipped FREE fully insured UPS.
