With packaging playing a pivotal role in the protection and promotion of consumer products and more consumers making purchasing decisions based on the environmental impact of packaging, brand owners are increasingly turning to cartons to help boost sales and reinforce brand values in a fiercely competitive retail environment.
RECYCLABLE BY NATURE - REMARKABLE BY DESIGN
Advances in technology have enabled packaging specialists to design and manufacture high quality cartons in truly unique styles and bespoke forms, offering product differentiation that is both cost effective and appealing.
Plus added extras such as striking print finishes and anti-counterfeit/security features add value where it mattes most: on the shelf!
Cartonboard can also be readily combined with other materials for added impact... a successful multi substrate combination can provide even greater versatility and value.
PACKED WITH PURPOSE
Factor in cartonboard’s impressive green credentials and you have pretty much the perfect sustainable packaging solution. Cartonboard is recyclable, biodegradable and compostable, with a carbon footprint that’s unmatched among other packaging materials.
Take a look at our new FIBRE 5 initiative, to find out more about the environmental benefits of fibre based packaging and to help promote the sustainability credentials of cartons.

- Carbon Footprint Recycled fibre now accounts for up to half the materials used in production, and the board mills themselves derive around 50% of their primary energy from wood by-products, making them less reliant on traditional fossil fuels.
- Ticking all the Boxes By utilising cartons, every stage of the supply chain can be carefully controlled, ensuring products arrive on the shelf on schedule and in great shape.
- Fibre 5 FIBRE 5 is a new BPIF Cartons initiative to showcase the environmental and sustainability credentials of Fibre Based Packaging.
We act as a hub to bring people together and widen networks, whether that's at our industry social events or at our sector-specific training and development workshops.
