Caring for the environment

Corrugated is in itself an inherently environmentally friendly material and packaging produced from corrugated board provides one of the most environmentally friendly packing solutions available. anysizebox has a declared commitment to encourage best practice in terms of supplier selection, material choice, packaging designs and manufacturing process to minimise negative impact to the environment. We acknowledge the need to manage our business in a way that recognises our corporate social responsibility to safeguarding the environment.

Corrugated boxes offer superb environmental credentials:

  • Corrugated packaging is made exclusively from sustainable forestry resources - natural and renewable.
  • Corrugated cardboard is 84% recycled in the UK - the highest recycling rate of all UK packaging
  • On average corrugated boxes manufactured in the UK are manufactured from 76% recycled fibre. A corrugated box can be recycled in 2 weeks and over 5 times before the fibres become too weak for further use
  • Corrugated boxes are completely biodegradeable

A properly sized corrugated box can reduce or eliminate the need for filler/buffer materials and allow for more effective stacking to reduce transportation. A well designed corrugated die-cut pack can easily reduce or eliminate the need for expanded polystyrene or plastic infills all in a simple to assemble, store and distribute product.

These all form part of the considerations that contribute to anysizebox client advice promoting our commitment towards safeguarding our environment.
