The sustainability of products and packaging is becoming increasingly important to consumers as the climate crisis becomes more apparent. In fact, 72% of consumers are buying more environmentally friendly products now than they were five years ago, and 81% said they expect to buy even more over the next five years.

When asked what the most sustainable packaging product is, 55% of respondents answered that paper and corrugated cardboard are the most environmentally friendly packaging products on the market. In addition to pleasing your customers, there are many other benefits of corrugated cardboard sustainability. Let’s explore them.

Cost-Effective

Corrugated cardboard can easily be recycled and the average corrugated box is made with 52% recycled content. This reduces the cost of raw materials because a majority of the material used in the creation of these boxes is recycled.

Additionally, corrugated cardboard is also easy to work with and lightweight in nature. This helps reduce the cost of labor needed to manufacture and produce these corrugated products. The lightweight nature of these products also reduces the cost of your transportation and allows you to ship more products in each load.

Improves Brand Image and Expand Customer Base

Corrugated cardboard sustainability will help develop your brand’s eco-friendly identity, improving your overall brand image with many consumers — especially millennials and Gen Z customers. With people looking for more sustainable companies to buy from, when you choose to use sustainable packaging products, you will draw in new customers as well.

No Harmful Plastics

Not only are plastics bad for the environment, but they contain chemicals that may be potentially harmful to humans as well. There are many chemicals of concern in plastics including BPA, DBP, and many more. These chemicals not only have high aquatic toxicity, making them extremely harmful to marine life, but they are also endocrine disruptors, negatively impacting the health of humans.

Corrugated cardboard contains none of these harmful chemicals. When they are used for packaging, consumers don’t have to worry about these chemicals seeping into the products they are purchasing, and they don’t have to worry about harming wildlife and the environment when they throw these packaging solutions away.
