the importance of sustainable packaging

Sustainable packaging continues to gain popularity among customers, consumers, and team members alike. By adopting sustainable packaging practices, you can reduce your environmental footprint while making a positive impact on the world and your bottom line. 

Sustainable packaging can reduce waste and minimize the environmental impact of packaging materials. This is essential for preserving the planet’s natural resources and protecting wildlife habitats. 

Sustainable packaging can also help your company reduce costs and increase efficiency by minimizing the amount of material used in packaging and reducing shipping and handling expenses.

sustainable packaging products offered by Castle Pierce

Our sustainable options are always expanding as new materials and technologies become available. Here are a few of the sustainable packaging options currently available through Castle Pierce. 

Paperboard Folding Cartons

Paper grades are available from 0%-100% recyclable products, making it one of the most sustainable products available. 

We are Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified, meaning all our purchasing is done from suppliers who sustainably manage their products using all available means — including forest management, green practices, reducing greenhouse gasses, and using recycled materials wherever possible.

Flexible Film Packaging

Castle Pierce does offer film materials that can be recycled and meet national recycling guidelines

There is an increasing innovation of film sourced from plant ingredients, but there is still plenty of room for growth. Some are still mixed with unsustainable materials to meet the packaging requirements. High-barrier Performance Paper Packaging is also becoming available. This allows brands to provide consumers with more sustainable end-of-life outcomes for packaging

Another way we’re able to offer sustainable packaging is to follow the “How 2 Recycle” guidelines and standardized labeling systems which clearly communicate recycle instructions to the public. 

This involves a coalition of forward thinking brands who want their packaging to be recycled and are empowering consumers through smart packaging labels.

economic impact

reducing excess inventory

At Castle Pierce, we reduce the risk of excess inventory by printing on demand and adjusting our production schedule to meet your needs. We can provide what you need when you need it, keeping excess inventory to a minimum and costs within your budget.

eliminating plate and set-up fees

To make your vision a reality, we provide in-house prepress services for both offset and flexographic projects. Once a design has your approval, we’ll prepare our machines to ensure success with each press. 

Thorough planning of this process can reduce excess energy throughout production and allow minimal print setup and mistakes.

in-house services

We keep everything under one roof for pouching, die-cutting, folding, and gluing, reducing cost and environmental impacts on transporting products and outsourcing energy. Castle Pierce will guide your idea from inception to production.
