Is Your Packaging Recyclable?Updated 2 days ago

At Untamed, we're passionate about both your cat's health and the health of our planet! That's why we strive to make our packaging as sustainable as possible. We're proud to be doing our part for future generations of kittens (and the world they live in!). 🐾


Here's a breakdown of how you can recycle your Untamed packaging:

  • Wet Food Tins: Yes, our tins are fully recyclable! They are made from aluminium or steel, meaning they're easily recyclable through your household recycling bins – unlike many plastic pouches.

  • Dry Food Packaging: Our dry food bags are designed with sustainability in mind! They are made from recyclable mono-material polyethylene (PE), which can typically be recycled via in-store drop-off points at large supermarkets across the UK that accept plastic bags.

  • Freeze-Dried Chicken or Salmon Treats Packaging: The packaging for our delicious freeze-dried treats is also designed with sustainability in mind! It is made of Nylon PET LLDPE and can be 100% recyclable. Please note: some local councils have strict guidelines on what they can accept for recycling, so it's always a good idea to check with your local authority.

  • Puree Lickable Cat Treats Packaging: We always design our products' packaging with sustainability in mind. While the outer packaging of our Puree Lickable Treats is eco-friendly, the individual sachets currently use printed aluminium to ensure strong barrier properties against moisture, fat, and odours, keeping your cat’s treats fresh and ensuring a long shelf life. Unfortunately, this material is not currently 100% recyclable. However, we are always looking for ways to improve, and we are actively investigating alternative packaging for Puree Lickable Treats to achieve 100% recyclability in the future.

  • Cat Litter Packaging: Our cat litter bags are recyclable! You can recycle them at large supermarkets alongside other plastic bags.

  • Wild Fish Oil Bottles: Our Wild Fish Oil plastic bottles are designed to be eco-friendly and are fully recyclable. You can simply pop them into your standard plastic recycling bin after use.


We're constantly working to reduce our environmental pawprint while keeping your cat’s meals and treats safe and fresh. Your efforts in recycling help us tremendously in our mission for a healthier planet! 🌍
