Performance and protection for e-commerce packaging

Packaging for e-commerce faces many uncertainties. What type of shipping container will be used? What other items will be placed in the same box as your product? Can your packaging survive 360 degrees of impact? Amid all these unknowns, one thing is certain – your product will be handled upwards of 25 times before it’s delivered compared to three to five times through traditional channels.

We work with our customers to design e-commerce packaging for knowns and unknowns. We have resins and expertise for primary, shipping and protective packaging, creating innovative and sustainable solutions that deliver an exceptional, frustration-free customer experience.

For each e-commerce need, we tap into our wide array of film, foam and closure products and deep market and application knowledge to develop the best-performing packaging solution. We also focus on your operations, delivering on processability and product consistency.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT

SCLAIR^® 2712CC

Sending liquid products through e-commerce channels requires high confidence that the packaging won’t leak. One faulty seal could potentially impact thousands of other products and cause distribution and fulfillment processes to grind to a halt for cleaning and sanitizing – all of which could result in chargebacks to the product’s manufacturer. Our SCLAIR® 2712CC resinenables an integrated ring pull around the mouth of a package’s closure, eliminating the potential for leakage. Because the ring pull is a functional part of the injection-molding process and not added in a secondary step like sealants and other components, it also reduces packaging production time and costs.
