Unlike other packaging suppliers, in an industry dominated by plastics, Ranpak\’s complete product range is made up of paper-based protective packaging, which has always been accompanied by a strong sense of environmental responsibility. This is something Ranpak continually review and have found it to have become increasingly important to their customers who are frequently charged with meeting their own green objectives.
There are several key factors contributing to Ranpak\’s environmentally friendly stance:
– All paper is 100% recyclable, biodegradable, and composable, and is sourced from FSC certified suppliers
– The production process is climate neutral – as it is made of a single material, less CO2 is emitted during the production process than is absorbed by its natural source – a source that is renewable
– The paper is extremely clean and contains no hazardous substances which could potentially contaminate the products it is protecting (particularly important for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals)
– The recycling rate of paper is extremely high and it can be disposed of with the box in which it is packed
Further environmental benefits come from the paper\’s strength and efficiency as a packing method, as less packaging material is required compared to plastic-based packaging due to its high cushioning and shock absorption properties. This is not only due to the properties of the paper but to the patented pad styles produced on Ranpak\’s full range of converters.
