Saving the world—one box at a time

Our On Demand Packaging® solution successfully replaces the traditional store-and-retrieve box model from our customers’ supply chains as well as the corresponding complexity, time, waste and unnecessary material and delivering costs. Right-sizing requires less corrugated fiberboard, removes or reduces the need for wasteful void filler, improves less-than-full-case average cube utilisation and reduces the overall carbon footprint.

Sustainable packaging - Packsize customers typically save:

40%

Box size reduction

60%

With standard boxes, you need a lot of filling material - otherwise, the ordered items are thrown around and possibly get damaged. On-Demand Packaging is a win-win situation for us - it saves shipping and material costs and protects the environment.
