Reducing Packaging Waste
The environmental footprint of a company is not only defined by what it uses, but also by what it doesn’t use.
At H.B. Fuller, we aim to reduce the environmental impact across the manufacturing process holistically, including the packaging forms we use to deliver our adhesive products. Packaging of adhesives plays an important role in safely distributing our products, so careful considerations are made to ensure the reduction in packaging waste does not compromise product quality.
Reusable Containers
Reusable packaging has been recognized as a more efficient option in reducing the impact of the volume of packaging materials and packaging waste. We offer reusable, foldable containers in select regions. These returnable containers are constructed to be stackable and increase the number of items that can be shipped in one truck, minimizing carbon emissions during the transportation process.
Palletizing Solutions
Our palletization adhesives enable reduction of excess transport packaging, such as stretch wrap. When applied to the top of finished goods packaging, H.B. Fuller adhesives grip corrugated cases, bags and shrink-wrapped bottles into place and prevent pallet loads from shifting during transit, reducing the need to use plastic stretch wrap for pallet stability.
H.B. Fuller is focused on helping manufacturers achieve their sustainability goals, with high performance products in innovative packaging formats, and without compromising the operational, quality and logistical benefits customers have come to expect of H.B. Fuller solutions. Contact us to learn more about how we can help solve your hygiene bonding challenges.
