If you are a business that relies heavily on global distribution, then packaging is about more than just protecting your goods. It’s about showing that you are responsible, with a focus on sustainability. 

With a spotlight put on sustainability as of late, packaging really is one of the areas where companies can make a big difference. 

At Tuplin, we take our responsibilities very seriously, which is why we combine our ISO 14001 standards with the benefits of sustainable wood packaging. 

This ensures we reflect our commitment to the planet, not just through the products we supply to you but the way we conduct ourselves as a business.

The Importance of sustainability in packaging

Businesses are under more pressure than ever to reduce waste and carbon emissions. Packaging plays a big role here. Traditional packaging solutions tend to contribute to landfill waste, and they also consume unnecessary resources. 

The result is packaging that protects goods, but at the same time, has a negative impact on the environment. Sustainable packaging, however, has a positive environmental impact by reducing waste while ensuring that goods are protected throughout the whole shipping process.

Putting it into practice

ISO 14001 is a globally recognised standard that calls for constant improvement for environmental management systems within a business. It’s also a good way for you, as a company, to gauge how environmentally conscious a supplier is. 

When you come to us at Tuplin, you can trust that we are combining our commitment to implementing environmentally friendly practices with providing sustainable packaging. 

We use precision engineering to reduce waste and choose sustainable materials wherever we can. Every case is designed with reuse in mind to help ensure that our cases can be used time and time again, which helps to reduce single-use waste. These processes demonstrate how our ISO 14001 practices can give our customers peace of mind when it comes to supply chain sustainability. 

For the people we work with, this translates to packaging solutions that not only protect your goods but also demonstrate clear responsibility to the environment and export and import regulations.

Strong protection

One challenge that a lot of businesses face is balancing their environmental goals with the need for robust and secure packaging. Standard packaging tends to fall short in both of these respects here. It doesn’t offer strong protection, and it also doesn’t offer sustainable features.

That’s where we believe our cases stand out. We are able to offer you a tailored fit, which helps to reduce any unnecessary materials used. We also make sure that we take steps to try and use eco-conscious materials by engaging with our suppliers on the latest packing products. 

This allows us to provide both strength and durability without compromising the general recyclability of what we use. 

Precision manufacturing also helps to keep waste to an absolute minimum, ensuring efficiency from the second it leaves our workshop. This is something we pride ourselves on, as it makes a big difference to our environmental impact. 

With materials like foam, polystyrene, and waterproof linings also available to choose from, we’re confident we can exceed your packing requirements.
