The Sustainable Packaging Solution
Sonopost® Protective Packaging
Reduce waste and meet regulations.
Decrease your environmental footprint per product and increase logistics efciency with our fully recyclable corner posts. After use, recycle this paper solution using curbside collection to reduce or eliminate end-of-life waste. Meet European sustainability regulations with our full-paper corner posts, made from recycled paperboard and produced from post-consumer board. Sourced from Sonoco’s European mill network, our corner posts come with a FSC certification (upon request) and a completed life cycle assessment.
Stack more units and maintain integrity.
Maintain long-term stacking integrity even in humid conditions and transportation distances greater than 1200 km with our corner posts. Stack more units with minimal secondary packaging thanks to our Sonopost technology, which offers superior stacking strength, crush resistance and cushioning protection.
Decrease cost and improve yield.
Lower material costs and improve yield with our assembly-free corner posts. Reduce labour costs and protect from clamp damage with our variety of corner post lengths and profiles shaped to hug corners and protect edges. If a standard design doesn’t fit your needs, customised solutions can be provided from our packaging design team.
