FAQ
At Model, you buy your packaging material directly from the manufacturer. This way you always get the best price with maximum quality. In addition, you reduce your CO2 footprint with our products. This is not only true because we manufacture in the heart of Europe, at our location in Switzerland. We also rely on a closed paper cycle.
Packaging material can be any type of material used to protect and secure items of any kind for transport, storage, sale or use. In online retail, on the other hand, the "packaging material" category mainly includes upholstery material and packaging accessories.
There are many types of packaging material, including cardboard, plastics (such as polystyrene, polyethylene, and polypropylene), wood, and metals (such as aluminum and tin cans). We specialise primarily in sustainable packaging material.
By using recyclable, biodegradable or reusable materials, packaging material can be made environmentally friendly. We mainly rely on products made from recycled paper and recycled corrugated cardboard. This means that our packaging material is part of our closed paper cycle.
Almost all packaging materials are available as plastic-free alternatives. Instead of plastic boxes, you can use cardboard boxes, bubble wrap can be replaced with corrugated cardboard or wrapping paper, packaging chips are available as biodegradable variants and even adhesive tape is now available in paper form.
Many countries have regulations on packaging materials, especially when it comes to safety, recycling, and environmentally friendly materials. For example, in Germany, every company that puts packaging into circulation must apply for a LUCID number .
Choosing the right packaging material depends on many factors, including the type of product to be packaged, transport conditions, environmental impact, and legal requirements. For example, there is dedicated packaging for food. It is important to find a balance between functionality, cost and environmental sustainability.
