5 packaging tips for smart and environmentally friendly packaging

Packaging is important to protect all types of products during transport, storage and delivery

Do you want to optimize packaging consumption and reduce environmental impact? RAJA has 5 principles, which are about promoting a circular business model, avoiding overpacking and using environmentally friendly packaging alternatives. Each principle helps to optimize packaging consumption and reduce environmental impact. This is what we mean by packaging SMART and sustainable.

The 5 principles are:

REDUCE
the weight and volume of the packaging is reduced to the minimum necessary to protect well without over-packaging.

If you choose packaging that is adapted to your products, the empty area around the product is reduced. Less empty space is used and there is no unnecessary weight, which means that your transport costs are reduced.

See RAJA’s selection of boxes here, with over 800 sizes to suit all needs.

GJENBRUK
the packaging as soon as possible.

There are many types of packaging that are designed to be reusable without compromising quality, so you can save the environment, but also cut costs.

SUPPLY
packaging with high environmental impact or non-recyclable with environmentally friendly alternatives.

For example, polystyrene corner protectors have now been replaced by 100% recyclable cardboard corner protectors.

EXCHANGE
by using bio-based packaging.

RAJA has a number of products that are made from renewable materials.
The pulp used as a component in the production of the paper and cardboard packaging consists of 70% wood from thinner cuttings, which is needed for the maintenance of the forest, while 30% wood waste and chips are extracted from forestry
.

RESOURCES
packaging to contribute to a circular economy that minimises waste.

RAJA offers a range of recyclable packaging options and encourages thorough waste sorting to recycle effectively.
