Bioplastic travel palette inserts for popular tin box sizes: small, medium ('Altoids' size), medium-large, and large.
All inserts are available individually, in case if you already have the boxes, or as a set with a tin box.
The dimensions are the following:
Small: 2.2 x 1.6 x 0.5 inches (55 x 43 x 12 mm)
Medium: 3.5 x 2.1 x 0.8 inches ( 88 x 53 x 20 mm)
Medium-Large: 3.4 x 2.9 x 0.8 inches (86 x 74 x 21 mm)
Large: 4.3 x 3.2 x 0.8 inches (110 x 80 x 20 mm)
The inserts were designed specifically to fit inside the tin boxes and to maximize all the space inside. Each one can fit a lot of paint! You can pour tube paint into these inserts, watercolors or gouache, and take them to plein air, travel, or to class. The inserts can be removed or replaced, if you want to alternate different color palettes for different purposes, or use your tin box for something else.
All inserts are made with compostable bioplastic. Available colors are Cotton White and Marble.
Compostable bioplastic is made of micro-organisms and renewable raw materials, such as, corn, cassava, sugarcane, or sugar beet pulp. Some variations of this bioplastic may include wood. Although this type of plastic still requires recycling, as it can only be composted in an industrial environment, it is still a better alternative to common non-biodegradable plastic that requires the use of nonrenewable petroleum and causes pollution.
