With all packaging made of cardboard, we propose to reduce environmental impact and CO2 emissions while increasing productivity! Do you think that SDGs and costs are in conflict with each other?

Many people believe that "eco-friendly products are expensive." In reality, there is a tendency for this to be true. As a result, even when trying to engage in efforts to reduce environmental impact and achieve the SDGs, it can often be difficult to proceed as planned, leaving one unsure of what to do. With our all-cardboard packaging (cardboard pallets, heavy goods packaging, collective packaging, functional packaging), we can offer benefits beyond just the environment, including: - "Reduction of CO2 emissions (achievement of SDGs goals)" - "Increased productivity" - "Improved logistics efficiency" **Examples:** - 90% reduction in CO2 emissions - 30% reduction in logistics costs due to improved transport efficiency - 30% reduction in packaging time due to increased work efficiency - 30% reduction in labor costs due to increased production efficiency *Note: The current packaging materials used may vary by customer, so this cannot be generalized.* **Other Benefits:** - Packaging can be done by anyone (including women and the elderly) - Easier unpacking during recalls or re-inspections - Company logos can be printed, enhancing advertising effectiveness and brand image - If shipping labels are printed, there is no need to apply them separately Since it is completely custom-made, we will design it according to the customer's usage conditions and requirements.
