Moreover, the EU\u2019s single-use plastic (SUP)<\/strong> Directive, which came into force on 3rd<\/sup> July 2019, aims to reduce the impact of certain plastic products on the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This has caused large brands and manufacturers to re-evaluate their packaging strategies and seek out sustainable alternatives.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ECOGRIP<\/strong> eliminates the need for single-use plastic<\/strong> \u2018shrink wrap\u2019 when carrying multiple bottles. The 100% biodegradable packaging<\/strong> that can be adapted to fit any type of bottle on the market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cart-One<\/strong> brings real customer value. As part of a Pan-European Alliance, Blue Box Partners, our team offers expertise and collective intelligence, delivering local solutions to global problems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our experience in different countries across Europe makes us perfectly placed to give customers broader perspectives. We want to work with brands to develop packaging solutions that not only solve their current issues around single-use plastic<\/strong> – but also provide environmentally-friendly, sustainable packaging solutions for many years to come<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Consumers, regulators and retailers are all demanding an end to single-use plastic<\/strong>, and advocating for sustainable packaging<\/strong> alternatives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n While industry continues to improve recycling rates for plastic bottles and containers, most secondary packaging such as shrink-wrap falls into the category of single-use plastic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shrink wrap may be efficient to produce, lightweight and convenient, but it has a catastrophic effect on the environment when it is not recycled. Each year, hundreds of millions of tons of SUP are produced and end up in our oceans and landfill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This has resulted in considerable pressure from governments, environmental groups and consumers – all of whom are demanding solutions around biodegradable packaging<\/strong> which is more sustainable<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Paper-based packaging is attractive to consumers (and retailers), but it impacts in the supply chain in a number of ways. Any viable alternative to single-use plastic<\/strong> needs to be easy to transport, easy to handle and easy to store. But it also needs to be adaptable. With so many different bottles on the market, any paper-based solution has to be simple and scalable to meet demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cart-One within the Blue Box Partners\u2019 development team carried out extensive customer-focused workshops and in-situ trials and testing to ensure performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We harnessed knowledge and experience from all our partners to produce a biodegradable packaging<\/strong> solution that meets the needs of brands all over Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ECOGRIP<\/strong> is designed to be flexible and practical. It doesn\u2019t matter what style of bottle or cap is involved, or how many bottles need to be accommodated. ECOGRIP<\/strong> will be compatible. Our core message to customers is around adaptability, ease-of use and biodegradability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Main features: <\/p>\n\n\n\n ECOGRIP<\/strong> is an adaptable and sustainable packaging<\/strong> concept.
