Glassine Seed Storage Envelopes (Pack of 20)

Designed specifically for gardeners, these glassine seed envelopes offer a safe and natural way to store harvested seed or leftover seed from previous seasons. Glassine paper is known for being pH-neutral and highly resistant to air, moisture and grease – making it ideal for maintaining the condition and lifespan of garden seed.

These envelopes are biodegradable and compostable, making them an environmentally sound option for gardeners looking to reduce waste. Their smooth surface allows for easy labelling, and their semi-transparent finish helps quickly identify contents without the need to open them.

Why Use Glassine Paper for Seed Storage

Glassine is a smooth, glossy paper made from wood pulp that’s been pressed and polished to create a non-porous surface. Its unique properties make it an excellent barrier against moisture and oil. Unlike regular paper, it doesn’t absorb grease or water easily, meaning your seed stays dry and secure in storage.

The envelopes also prevent fine seed, like lettuce or carrot, from slipping through paper fibres. This reduces the risk of losing small or delicate seed during handling and transport, especially when collected directly from your garden.

Each envelope closes with a fold-over flap, keeping contents secure while allowing for easy access and resealing. They are perfect for storing seed in a seed tin, seed organiser or drawer, and suitable for every kind of seed – from vegetables to herbs and wildflowers.

Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just beginning to collect and save your own seed, these paper seed envelopes are the ideal addition to your planting kit.
