How much plastic are you wasting?

The UK uses over 150,000 tons of pallet wrap each year. To give you some context, just 2.5 tons of pallet wrap is enough to fill a double decker bus. With standard pallet wrap, you could be using up to 400g of plastic on every pallet.

As the world becomes more environmentally conscious, the demand for sustainable pallet wrap is expected to grow. It may not always be possible to completely remove plastic from your pallet operation due to the nature and constraints of the products you’re shipping - but it is possible to use less. In fact, it is possible to use as little as 98 grams to wrap a standard pallet with the right product.

Cut plastic waste… and your carbon footprint

Your first step in understanding how to reduce your organisation’s plastic consumption and tax liability is to understand your present usage. This can be easily calculated during one of our Transit Packaging Optimisation Health Checks.
