The GreenCase FAQ - Your Questions, Answered

The vast majority of our cases are in stock at our warehouse in Delhi.  The longest delay you should ever see in shipping is about 2-3 days IF that item is somehow out of stock. 

If the item is out of stock, there will be a notice under the "add to cart" button at the time of purchase so you will know there will be a delay :)

NOTE: There is a 24-48 hour processing time on EVERY order including those with faster shipping.  

You will receive your tracking information via email as soon as your order ships - please allow 24-48 hours for this to arrive in your inbox after purchase of in-stock items! 

Our GreenCase was designed to protect your phone for as long as you need it.

Your case may change texture over time which is normal but we promise it will not fall apart or biodegrade unless it is in a backyard or industrial compost as it needs air, moisture, sunlight and microorganisms to break down.

When you no longer need your GreenCase, you can contact us, so that you can send us your old GreenCases and we can recycle them to make another generation of GreenCase products! Simply email us at kedawat.jyotiabhi@gmail.com to get the process started and to thank you for sending your GreenCase back, you will receive a 10% discount code off your next order.

GreenCase is a durable, shock-absorbing case that allows your phone to bounce when dropped.

Because we have not done official tests, we cannot claim to be an impact case but we do provide protection from wear and tear as well as small drops, fumbles and the little ones who like to think smartphones are footballs :)

The GreenCase is made of a material comprised of Wheat Straw + a Bio-Based polymer derived from annually renewable harvest. Our material has been tested to be safe and free of phthalates, BPA, cadmium and lead and is verified to meet child safety standards.

While people measure eco-friendliness in many ways and by different standards, we measure it by the way we minimize harm to the environment in comparison to traditional plastic cases. We are hyper-aware of the greenwashing happening—using eco-friendliness as a marketing tool to sell more products— and are actively trying to avoid being lumped into that category. For us, that doesn’t mean we claim to be perfect, but we strive to be better and better with every business decision we make.

From manufacturing to packaging, here’s how we hope to displace waste and pollution in the tech accessory market:

• Our material uses renewable feedstock (wheat straw, natural fibres) as a substitute for petroleum-based feedstock and reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions associated with plastic production. 

• Our packaging material is plastic-free - why does your case need a case? We ship our cases naked in a 100% recycled and recyclable paper package (also compostable) to further reduce our plastic waste footprint and single-use plastic consumption.

• Wheat Straw is an annually renewable byproduct of the Wheat harvest in India and is typically burned down at the end of each season. Using this “waste” byproduct gives our cases added strength and natural shock absorption and provides local farmers with another source of revenue.

Those little specks are actual Wheat Straw pieces! Pretty cool, huh? Not only does this provide strength and natural shock absorption, it also makes each piece like a snowflake. No two cases are exactly alike. Also, it’s the best way to get someone to ask you what your case is made of and you can tell them all about your planet-loving case :) 

Our Cases are designed for a slim fit, sleek look that adds almost zero extra bulk to your phone at around 1.2 mm of thickness - which also works with wireless charging!

It will be wet :) haha all jokes aside, nothing should happen to your case if it gets wet. If your case gets wet, you can just wipe it dry and it will not harm the case.
