Known for its constant innovation in paper based packaging, following 400 patents registered over 30 years, Ranpak has now launched a completely new concept – Upak.
Specifically designed for small business and home operations, the Upak is a double sided box of fan-folded paper, where on one side, paper is dispensed as a void fill material (the Pack side) to prevent products shifting in their box, and on the other as a flat paper (the Wrap side) to wrap products and prevent breaking and scratching.
The Upak concept is based on the principles of the paper’s strength and versatility as a packaging material and can be used to pack a variety of products. It is easy to use, easy to store and easy to dispose of. Furthermore, each pack holds enough paper to pack up to 20 boxes.
Amber Augustus, Product Manager for Upak comments: ‘We are not only excited about the positive response we have already received from small business in the UK, Europe and Asia Pacific, but also about the opportunities available in this market.’
The Upak has been designed as a clean, green and cost effective alternative to bubble wrap or loose fill chips. Every Upak box is filled with100m of100% recycled paper. That means not only are your products protected, but there is no negative environmental impact. The paper is made from a natural renewable source, and is unbleached, biodegradable, decomposable and recyclable.
Upak is available through a range of distributors in the UK. For more information or to find out about Ranpak’s other in box packaging systems contact info@ranpak.co.uk
