Specialized Inserts for Protection
Specialized inserts are crucial for products requiring
extra protection due to size, shape, or fragility. Think jewelry, computer parts, glass ornaments, etc. These inserts can fit snugly around the product, providing a cushion against shocks and bumps that might occur during shipping.
The beauty of these inserts is their customizability; the PackageIt team can tailor them to the exact dimensions and protective needs of any product. While the cost of these custom inserts varies based on material and complexity, the investment pays off by reducing the rate of damaged goods and enhancing customer satisfaction.
Foam Inserts
Foam inserts are precision-cut materials designed to fit the contours of a specific product. The benefits of foam inserts include their lightweight nature — which can help reduce shipping costs — and their versatility in density and firmness. Furthermore, foam inserts offer an aesthetically pleasing presentation upon unboxing, which is a crucial aspect of luxury items or electronics.
Corrugated Inserts
Corrugated inserts are made from corrugated cardboard consisting of a fluted corrugated sheet sandwiched between two flat linerboards. The primary benefit of corrugated inserts is their exceptional ability to absorb shock and prevent product movement within the box. Additionally, they are highly customizable, enabling precise fitting for any product shape or size. Corrugated cardboard is also recyclable and made from renewable resources.
Tension Pack Inserts
Tension pack inserts are innovative
packaging supplies that use a system of flexible films that stretch to create tension around the items. These inserts encase the product, applying gentle but firm pressure that holds it in a fixed position during transit. One of the primary benefits of tension pack inserts is their ability to adapt to various shapes and sizes. Additionally, tension pack inserts can offer a more sustainable packaging solution that reduces waste by minimizing the need for additional cushioning materials.
Eco-Friendly Packaging Solutions
In today’s environmentally conscious market, businesses increasingly seek packaging options that align with their brand values. If your company has an ecological focus, consider incorporating non-plastic packaging materials into your customization strategy. Integrating these eco-friendly choices into your packaging design reduces your environmental footprint and appeals to eco-conscious consumers who prioritize sustainability.
Biodegradable Packing Peanuts
Biodegradable packing peanuts are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional Styrofoam peanuts, made from natural, non-toxic sources such as wheat and corn starch. These materials dissolve in water and can be composted, making them an excellent choice for companies looking to minimize their environmental impact.
Recycled Paper and Cardboard
Recycled
paper and cardboard
boxes are staple materials in eco-friendly packaging. These materials are sourced from previously used
paper products and are fully recyclable, contributing to a closed-loop system that reduces the need for new paper. Additionally, recycled paper and cardboard can create anything from boxes and inserts to wrapping and void fill.
Mushroom Packaging
Mushroom packaging is a novel material made from mycelium — the mushroom’s root structure — and agricultural waste. This material grows into custom shapes within a few days, providing a sustainable and compostable alternative to plastic
foams. Mushroom packaging decomposes naturally without leaving harmful residues and has excellent insulating and protective properties.
Plant-Based Plastics
Plant-based plastics (bioplastics) are made from renewable resources such as corn, sugarcane, or cassava. Unlike conventional petroleum-based plastics, plant-based plastics can be biodegradable or compostable. These materials create flexible films, bags, and even rigid containers that offer functionality similar to traditional plastics but with a significantly lower impact on the environment.
Cellulose Packaging
Cellulose packaging originates from organic materials such as hemp, wood, and cotton, offering a biodegradable and compostable choice for environmentally conscious businesses. The natural composition makes it a prime candidate for replacing traditional plastic packaging. Notably favored by food-related industries, cellulose packaging is esteemed for its ability to resist moisture, ensuring the longevity and freshness of edible products.
