Strong, sustainable, and smart: Explore eco-friendly packaging choices that deliver performance and peace of mind.
Sustainability is no longer just a trend; it’s a necessity for businesses and consumers alike. But when it comes to packaging, many worry that “going green” means giving up strength and reliability. At TigerPak, we’re here to show you that you can have both: robust protection for your goods and a lighter environmental footprint.
Why Strength Still Matters
Packaging is your product’s first line of defence. Whether you’re shipping fragile items or heavy goods, you need materials that can withstand the rigours of transport and storage. The good news? Today’s eco-friendly packaging solutions are engineered to deliver the same, if not better, performance as traditional options.
TigerPak’s Eco-friendly Packaging Solutions
1. Paper Air Cushions: Lightweight, Strong, and Sustainable
Our TPA-Eco Paper Air Cushion Machine & Systems create air cushions from recycled Kraft paper and a compostable PLA layer. These cushions are 100% biodegradable, recyclable, and provide excellent shock absorption, ideal for protecting delicate items during shipping. They’re made with FSC-certified materials, so you can be confident in their environmental credentials.

2. Paper Void Fill: Efficient and Eco-friendly
Looking for an efficient and sustainable way to protect your products during shipping? The TPV-20 Void Fill Machine is designed to dispense paper void fill directly into your boxes, providing excellent cushioning and preventing items from shifting in transit. With multiple dispensing modes, it’s easy to use and helps streamline your packing process. Plus, it uses FSC 100% recycled paper, sourced from responsibly managed forests and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, so you can feel good about your packaging choices.
If you’re a low-volume user, the TPV-10 Centre Pull Void Fill Dispenser is a fantastic alternative. This clever dispenser shapes the paper into a cylindrical tube that traps air, minimising the amount of material needed while still delivering outstanding cushioning performance. While it might not get as much attention, it’s trusted by major companies, Amazon in the U.S. reportedly uses around 40,000 of these dispensers in their distribution centers!

3. Honeycomb Paper Wrap: A Modern Alternative to Bubble Wrap
Our TPW-20 Diamond Wrap Pro Dispenser uses expandable honeycomb paper to create a protective, flexible wrap for your products. It’s an eco-friendly alternative to plastic bubble wrap, offering both strength and a premium presentation.

4. Heavy-duty Paper Cushioning: For the Toughest Jobs
For heavy or awkwardly shaped items, the TPC-20 HD Paper Cushioning Machine produces waved paper pads from recyclable kraft paper. These pads provide heavy-duty protection and are made on-demand, reducing storage needs and waste.

5. Eco-friendly Stretch Film: Less Waste, More Strength
Infinity Hand Film is a revolutionary pallet wrap that uses up to 20% less film per pallet, thanks to its superior puncture resistance and minimal “neck down.” This means less plastic waste without sacrificing load security.

6. Sustainable Tapes: Secure and Recyclable
Kraft Carton Sealing Tape is made from FSC-approved paper and can be recycled with your cartons. It offers strong adhesion and is perfect for sealing boxes securely.
Water Activated Tape Systems use a starch-based adhesive for a tamper-evident, super-strong seal. Available in reinforced and non-reinforced options, these tapes are fully recyclable and work with automatic dispensers for efficiency.

PET Packaging Tape is made from 85% post-consumer recycled PET, offering high tensile strength and excellent adhesion, especially on recycled cardboard.
