Air Cushions produce 99% less waste than packing paper.
If you stuff your boxes with paper to protect your goods, you are sending a lot of paper across the country. And the paper does not evaporate afterwards, the waste remains in its entirety. Air cushions are different: they consist of 99% AIR and only one percent film. You ship as practically nothing but air and receive perfect transport protection.
Air cushioning - a great idea for the environment
Packaging with air cushions therefore means avoiding transport damage with minimal packaging effort - a great idea for the environment! Especially when FLÖTER air cushions are used. With the latest generation of FLÖTER production systems, the manufacture of film types as thin as 12µm has become standard. This means that many tons of CO2 can be saved, which would be generated during the production of heavy packaging material. The supply routes for polyethylene have also been established for a long time. New and durable products are made from the plastic residues obtained in the recycling process. We also offer bio-films that are 100% home compostable. Protecting the environment is an elementary component of product development at FLÖTER.
