Toronto, ON, July 31, 2026 — Urgent Boxes Canada, a custom packaging manufacturer serving small and mid-sized Canadian businesses, today announced the launch of a new line of 100% recyclable and compostable seasonal packaging built for the fourth-quarter retail and events calendar. The collection covers Halloween treat and gable boxes, Christmas gift packaging, daily-opening Advent calendars, and favor boxes for weddings, corporate events, and holiday parties.
The new line uses Kraft paper, corrugated board, and rigid box stock, all printed with soy-based, non-toxic inks and produced without plastic laminates or foil coatings that typically prevent packaging from being recycled or composted through standard municipal programs.

The launch comes as Canadian regulators tighten rules around how packaging can legally be labeled "recyclable" or "compostable." Health Canada and Environment and Climate Change Canada have been developing labelling rules for plastic packaging and single-use plastics to curb misleading environmental claims, part of a broader federal push to raise plastics collection and reprocessing standards. Industry groups tracking the packaging sector expect these requirements, along with expanding provincial Extended Producer Responsibility programs, to keep reshaping material choices well into 2026 and beyond, according to recent industry analysis of Canadian packaging and recycling trends .

Product Highlights

Custom Halloween boxes — Kraft and corrugated treat boxes and gable boxes designed for candy shops, school events, and seasonal retail displays.
Custom Christmas boxes — Rigid and corrugated holiday packaging built for e-commerce shipping and in-store gift wrap alike.
