Paper Packaging

The plastic crisis is more urgent than you think

 

The world produces more than 400 million tons of plastics every year, and only 9% is recycled. People are demanding change, and companies are taking notice.

 

66% of global consumers say they’re willing to pay more for sustainable goods.
84% of consumers seek out responsible products wherever possible.
81% of consumers believe it’s very important that companies implement programs to improve the environment.
127 out of 192 countries have legislated to regulate the manufacture, sale, use and disposal of single-use plastic.
60+ Countries have introduced bans and levies to curb single-use plastic waste.

Sustainable Choice

A new EU-wide strategy on plastics is aiming to achieve a more circular economy. It seeks to address plastic pollution, and to demonstrate the business case for change. The top-level features are:

A ban on selected single-use plastic products where there are alternatives.
Ambitious recycling targets for all packaging materials. New plastic products must contain at least 50% recycled materials by 2025 and 75% by 2035.
Extended manufacturer responsibility: producers of relevant products must share the costs of clean-up, waste management, and awareness campaigns

The case to transition to protective paper packaging is growing more important.

Green Packaging

Renewable: Paper packaging is one of the most sustainable options as it is a renewable resource. Trees absorb CO2 from the atmosphere as they grow and paper continues to store carbon throughout its lifetime.
Biodegradable: Biological organisms can break down paper packaging into basic compounds such as CO2, water, and biomass. For paper, this can take as little as a week to a few months. Plastics can take so long to degrade that for all practical purposes they are considered non-biodegradable.
Curbside Recyclable: Recycling paper packaging conserves natural resources, saves energy, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces landfill. It also reduces our dependence on oil-based plastics. Paper is the most recycled product in Europe (above 72%)

Create An Experience

Product delivery and unboxing is a crucial (and continuously growing) part of e-commerce business. You don’t have the storefront and window displays of traditional retailers to draw consumers in. That means your packaging provides the first impression, and elevates a customer’s purchasing experience. Good presentation can help boost e-commerce sales, attract repeat customers, and build your brand.

Protective paper packaging provides the consumers with a sustainable packaging that is easy to dispose of and looks great.
