Eco Packaging Solutions
Earth-friendly Eco Solutions are not just a topic of discussion anymore; they are our responsibility. Ironically, solutions for greener packaging have been available for decades, and the good news is that manufacturers continue to improve their formulations and durability. Each packaging solution has pros and cons, and its use depends on the finished product inside.
I give the story of a sugar producer who was asked to reduce his bags from double wall to single to reduce packaging. His response was very insightful – “Reducing the packaging will make the product less stable during loading, shipping, and retail handling. The end result is broken bags and valuable sugar spillage, spoilage, and waste. This will lead to a loss of resources for production to refill the loss. So we will keep the bags as they are and strive for a more sustainable paper source.”
This scenario can be true of many products that require packaging. Quality should never be compromised to find a more sustainable option. At RLR Packaging, we offer wholesale vinyl packaging that is California Prop 65 and REACH compliant. Our packaging is all phthalate (plasticizer) free, recyclable, and, in some programs, BPA and chloride-free.
