Q: What should I do if my matchbox's strike strip stops working?
A: We designed our matchboxes with two strike strips for extended use. If both strips become ineffective, you can remove and replace them with new strike strips.

Q: How do I recycle my matchboxes?
A: Before recycling your matchboxes, remove the strike strips and dispose of them in your regular trash. Then, recycle the matchboxes according to your local recycling guidelines.

Q: How do I dispose of used matchsticks?
A: Extinguish the flame completely by dunking the match head in cold water until fully soaked. Matchsticks are primarily made of wood and can break down in a landfill. However, the preferred method is composting. Burnt wooden matches add carbon-rich material to your compost pile, contributing alongside items like old newspapers, dried grass, and leaves. The match heads, containing phosphorus sulfide and potassium chlorate, decompose into beneficial inorganic fertilizer components.

Q: How do I safely dispose of unused matches?
A: Never dispose of unused matches in any waste container or down the drain. To dispose of unused matches safely:

1. Soak the matches in water for an hour.
2. Remove them from the water.
3. Throw away in regular trash or compost.
