Our verdict

Notpla suits UK food sellers who want packaging made from seaweed and plants, with their own branding printed on the boxes and free delivery once an order passes £125. It is a poor match for anyone who needs print on the sachets or delivery outside the UK.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • You can print your own branding on the boxes, so packaging reaches the customer already carrying the shop's name.
  • Free delivery on orders over £125, which takes the postage charge off a larger run.
  • Made from seaweed and plants, the packaging is vegan and home compostable, so a customer can compost it at home rather than bin it as general waste.

Cons

  • Custom printing does not reach the sachets, so a brand's own artwork is limited to the boxes.
  • Free delivery starts above £125, so smaller orders carry a postage charge of their own.

Who it suits

  • UK food sellers such as cafés, delis and takeaways who want packaging a customer can compost at home.
  • Brands that want their own artwork on the boxes they ship, since the printing here goes onto the boxes.
  • Sellers ordering enough to pass £125 and take the postage charge off a repeat run.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Not for sellers who need their print on the sachets; the printing here sits with the boxes.
  • Not for orders under £125, where the free delivery does not apply.

The company behind it

Notpla trades as Notpla Limited, with its registered office in the United Kingdom and an entry on the public company register dating from 2014. For a buyer weighing supplier risk, that record is worth more than it first appears: there is a named legal entity and a fixed address behind the order, so a late delivery or a misprinted run has someone answerable for it. The register also lets a buyer placing a large first order look the company up and find the same name that will appear on the invoice, which matters when a finance team wants a supplier it can verify in its own terms. Support runs on email and help centre. Questions about print files, materials, order changes and delivery are handled in writing, which leaves a record of what was agreed and when, useful if a claim needs evidence later. The trade-off is speed in the moment, since there is no voice call on offer here, and a question that needs a same-day conversation waits for a written reply. Buyers working to a print deadline should leave room for that gap rather than assume a same-morning answer, and check delivery terms before fixing a launch date.

Frequently asked questions

What is Notpla packaging made of?+

Everything is made from seaweed and plants, and the packaging is compostable and biodegradable. The shop also describes the range as vegan and home compostable, which gives a seller a line to put in front of customers: the packaging can go into a household compost bin rather than general waste. For a food seller, that is an easy claim to add to a product page.

How much does delivery cost?+

Delivery is free on orders over £125, so a print run at that level arrives without a separate postage charge. Orders below it are not covered by that offer and pay for delivery, which makes the threshold worth checking against a typical order size before a first buy. Sellers running small repeat orders should weigh the postage against the unit price.

Where does Notpla deliver?+

Notpla delivers within the United Kingdom and does not currently ship to addresses outside of it. Sellers based elsewhere in Europe or in the US will need a different supplier, because there is no international route from this shop as it stands. A seller already shipping across borders should expect to source packaging locally, which can also shorten delivery times on a restock.

Who runs Notpla?+

The shop belongs to Notpla Limited, a company registered in the United Kingdom with its address on the public company register. Buyers placing larger orders can look up that entry before paying, and the name on the register matches the name a customer is buying from, which is simpler when a finance team needs a supplier it can verify on its own terms.

How long has Notpla been trading?+

The company entry on the public register dates from 2014, so the business behind the shop is established rather than newly set up. That matters most to a buyer committing to a repeat print run, since a supplier with a public record behind it is easier to hold to a delivery promise than one that appears only on a shop page.
