A pharmaceutical company was looking for a green solution to replace their current foam-in-place polyurethane void-fill. When first hearing about air pillows for a solution, they were skeptical. Traditional air pillows are not typically recognized as being environmental or biodegradable.

A pharmaceutical company was looking for a green solution to replace their current foam-in-place polyurethane void-fill.

  • Needing an environmentally friendly packaging solution
  • Needing to improve overall sustainability

IPS Packaging provided a  high-performance, low density polyethylene air pillow film that not only met green initiatives, but exceeded them with film that:

  • Biodegrades in Anaerobic/Aerobic Environments
  • Diverts Less Plastic to the Waste Stream
  • Uses 50% less resin
  • 100% Recyclable
  • Provides Greater Puncture Resistance

With a large number of shipments going out on a daily basis, the pharmaceutical company was extremely thankful for the earth-friendly solution to their current polyurethane foam-in-place void-fill packaging. They were hoping for a greener solution to void-fill that would be tough yet flexible. They were hoping it would have a long shelf-life, be cost effective, and be a green solution.

Realizing that they had high expectations for their packaging solution, they contacted the only company they knew that streamlines packaging processes and offers sustainable products. IPS Packaging!
