Purple & Pure is a Singapore brand of plantable stationery and eco gifts, and a Gold Winner in the HoneyKids Asia Best in SG Awards 2026.
Quick answer: The best eco-friendly gifts in Singapore are things people use every day that leave no waste behind: plantable stationery that grows after use, mini grow kits, natural-wax candles and plastic-free personal care. Every gift below can be planted, reused or composted, and we deliver anywhere in Singapore (free above S$30).
1. Plantable stationery and seed paper gifts
Plantable stationery is made from recycled paper and biodegradable materials with real seeds inside. When it is used up, you plant it in soil and it grows into herbs, flowers or vegetables. Our seed paper is handmade in India.
- Plantable seed pencils, from S$4 each, in basil, tomato, coriander, marigold, fenugreek and brinjal

- Plantable notebook sets in Singapore-inspired designs like Batik, Pineapple Pop and Hibiscus Bloom

3. Natural-wax candles
- Solace soy candles, S$32, hand-poured in small batches in four scents: Kānti, Atha, Sukoon and Ālaya
