We focus on ways to reduce transit damage, minimizing labor and freight costs, while building brand awareness.
Over the past two decades, the shopping and buying habits of consumers have changed significantly. Previously, the only way that consumers could purchase items would be to visit a retail store, buy the product off the shelf, and transport it to their homes. These products arrived at the retail shelf by utilizing a hyper-efficient distribution model developed and optimized over many years. Goods were shipped on a pallet via truck to a retail distribution center. Retailers would deliver the products to the consumer or brick and mortar stores.
In the early 2000’s, the direct-to-consumer sales and distribution model blossomed and began to create distribution issues for consumer products companies. Companies had to decide how to integrate a distribution model that included small parcel deliveries directly to consumer’s homes, while still serving the long-standing retail distribution model. With shipping being a major factor in the ability of a company to supply direct to consumer, lightweight kraft paper and kraft box packaging took a major step. With smooth, wood-like finish, versatile and eco-friendly packaging, kraft paper and kraft paper packaging became the packaging of choice! It can be used for a wide variety of industrial and commercial operations, including product boxes, paper bags, paper cans and other paper uses.
Today, in the ever growing and changing retail, wholesale and ecommerce markets, the trend in packaging is sustainability and how that can be paired with custom branding and low cost to entice repeat customers. Since kraft paper is durable, inexpensive, easily recyclable, eco-friendly and easy to custom print, consumers are supporting the positive environmental impact kraft paper provides.
