January is the perfect time to set ambitious goals for the year ahead, and for many Australian businesses, Sustainable Packaging is at the top of the list. Making the switch can seem overwhelming, but at Knight Packaging Supplies, we believe achievable change starts with the right product.
Our hardworking team is dedicated to making your life easier by offering direct, high-quality swaps that make your operations greener without compromising protection.
Void Fill & Protection
When it comes to protecting your products, you don’t have to sacrifice sustainability. We apply our core value of an honest approach to help you find effective, earth-friendly internal cushioning.
- Move away from Polystyrene Loosefill by choosing Biodegradable Loosefill: Our Biodegradable Loosefill is made from eco-friendly materials, is compostable and breaks down naturally, while still offering superior cushioning protection and shook absorption for your fragile goods. On top of all of that it is also lightweight and easy to use, there’s no reason not to make the switch!
- Replace traditional Bubble Wrap with Recyclable Hexel Wrap: This sustainable alternative offers superior void fill and shock absorption, effectively protecting your products and reducing damage while significantly reducing plastic use. Perfect for Glassware, Ceramics, Cosmetics and any other fragile products, this recyclable option is also cost effective and operationally efficient, being easy to tear and fast and easy to use.
Sealing & Wrapping
Your commitment to sustainability should extend to every layer of your packaging. Since we only supply well-known quality brands, you can trust that these eco-alternatives won’t lead to issues down the line.
- Switch out Plastic Packaging Tape for Sustainable Alternatives: This simple swap is critical because it allows your entire carton to be recycled together without needing to separate the tape. It’s a high-quality, strong seal you can rely on.
- Transition from plastic wraps or mailers by exploring our wide range of general Paper Products: Items made from paper such as Corrugated Board and Jiffy Kraft Utility Bags can replace less sustainable, high-plastic elements in your packaging design, helping you eliminate plastic entirely where possible.
Internal Bracing and Custom Fit
Internal bracing often uses non-recyclable moulded plastics or difficult-to-separate foams. You can achieve better protection while using fully recyclable materials.
- Swap plastic moulds or foam pieces for Corrugated Inserts: Our Corrugated Board is fully recyclable and can be engineered for a perfect custom fit, ensuring bracing and support without the plastic waste. It’s easy to handle and cut to size, ensuring your items stay safe and secure throughout the supply chain.
- Consider using lighter, material-efficient solutions like Air Pillows: Our Air Pillows are durable and puncture-resistant, securing and cushioning goods while in transit. Made with post-industrial recycled material, they align with your sustainability goals.
