Fulfyld’s Greener Alternatives: What We Can Offer
In our commitment to offer flexible and more environmentally sustainable shipping options, Fulfyld has paper products on hand and available for use. As consumers become increasingly mindful of their environmental impact, the demand for sustainable packaging options has surged. Traditional plastic tape and bubble wrap, once ubiquitous in the shipping industry, are now being scrutinized for their detrimental impacts on the environment. From pollution to resource depletion, the environmental toll of plastic packaging is a question on the minds of many entrepreneurs.
Paper Packaging:
Paper-based packaging presents a compelling eco-friendly alternative that not only addresses environmental concerns but also offers practical option for businesses. Fulfyld offers water-activated tape and kraft paper as void fillers if you’re interested in paper products over plastic ones. Here’s just a few reasons paper products are more sustainable to their plastic counterparts.
Biodegradability:
Unlike plastic, which can persist in the environment for centuries, paper products are biodegradable. Water-activated tape and kraft void filler break down naturally if the recipient doesn’t choose to recycle their shipping materials.
Renewable Resources:
Paper is predominantly derived from renewable resources such as trees, which can be sustainably harvested and replenished. By opting for paper-based packaging solutions, businesses reduce their reliance on finite fossil fuels.
Recyclability:
Paper products have a high recycling rate compared to plastic. Water-activated tape and kraft void filler can be easily recycled alongside other paper materials, diverting waste from landfills and supporting a circular economy.
Reduced Carbon Footprint:
The production and disposal of plastic packaging generates significant greenhouse gas emissions. In contrast, paper production tends to have a lower carbon footprint.
