Here are their top 6 eco-friendly packaging options
Bubblewrap – is the most popular of all the protective packaging solutions out there. However, companies are now more concerned about their environmental footprint, and Springpack’s range of Simply Eco Bubblewrap offers an eco-friendly option. What’s more, as it’s manufactured from a minimum of 30% recycled materials, it’s exempt from the Plastic Packaging Tax. Every roll of Bubblewrap that you buy from Springpack is made with a minimum of 30% recycled material. Therefore you can have the same protection, and be more eco-friendly.
Exclusive to Springpack, their Blue Ocean Eco Film is made from 100% recycled film. This makes it their most eco-friendly range of air cushions yet. In fact, due to the various cell shape and size options, this product is a great alternative to bubblewrap. Blue Ocean Eco Film is inflated on demand too. This means storage space is dramatically reduced compared to bubblewrap. When you purchase the Blue Ocean Eco Film rolls from Springpack, they even supply the machine to inflate the rolls free of charge! Additionally, due to being made from 100% recycled materials, they are exempt from the Plastic Packaging Tax.
If you are looking for an eco-friendly void fill, then Paper Twist-Fil could be the solution! One advantage of this product is they have been designed to interlock. This is a great alternative to standard Loosefill and it’s a lot more eco-friendly too. The Paper Twist-Fil comes in a bag with a volume of 15 cubic feet, and there are approx. 2,600 qty twist-fills per bag.
Paper Bubblewrap or Globular Embossed Paper
The ultimate eco alternative to standard bubblewrap. Paper Bubblewrap is 100% recyclable and made from 100% recycled paper. It does not have any air pockets like standard bubblewrap, so can be re-used. This will help you save money, and the environment! In addition to void filling, this product can be used for wrapping items too. An important consideration is that per roll of Paper Bubblewrap you get 150m/roll. This is lots more than the standard 50m or 100m on a roll of conventional bubblewrap. Therefore, this will take up less storage space overall. If you are looking to save space and the environment, look no further!
