Three e-commerce packaging reasons to celebrate our award-winning home of innovation.

Since racking up accolades from the Czech and Turkish Obal Roka and Ambalaj Ay Yıldızları Awards, three of our products have now been submitted to the globally prestigious Worldstar Packaging Awards. We can proudly say that our home of innovation, as we like to call Mondi Corrugated Solutions, plays a significant role in the advancement of packaging design.

From ideas conceptualisation and customer unboxing experiences to sustainable initiatives for a better environmental footprint, we pride ourselves on developing products that overcome the most challenging of packaging needs. We want to support our customers in finding the perfect packaging match for their goods – sustainable by design and fit for purpose.

The award-winning e-packaging innovations – FloralBox, 4-height SupremeBox and the EnvelopeMailer – have been spotlighted from our spectrum of smart solutions and are now in the running for the renowned 2021 WPO international awards, to be announced in December.

Individualised packaging innovation for every e-product.

It’s our mission to find cutting-edge solutions to raise industry standards by challenging the status quo. Yet, we never rest on our achievements because we continuously seek to develop new initiatives that support your business targets. Our latest production technologies and expertise provide a strong base for turning those ideas into practical realities.

“We set new standards through the work of our PDD (Product Development and Design) centres and creating value from a natural resource is one of the key challenges,” says Tarik Aniba, Sales and Marketing Director Mondi Corrugated Solutions. “It is great to have a network in place with more than 80 product developers in 16 plants who have a close relationship with each other. They exchange and share ideas and findings via our internal, online platforms and direct sessions, catering towards our goal to support customers in finding ideal e-commerce packaging solutions fit for their product.”

Our award-winning e-commerce packaging.

1. Delicate design and perfect unboxing with the FloralBox

2020 national award win. Our Mondi Tire Kutsan team in Turkey gained recognition for the FloralBox in the category of Industrial and Transportation Packages at the Ambalaj Ay Yıldızları awards.

FloralBox is an e-commerce solution offering a modular system to securely ship potted plants of different types and sizes and in various combinations. The one-for-all insert accommodates different protection needs, with consumers delighted by the pristine condition the plants arrive in alongside the positive unboxing experience.

  • Flexible packaging that allows up to six different types and sizes of products to be shipped means the producer needs only one packaging type.
  • The 100% corrugated solution avoids plastic fillers. Inserts are used as fixations to prevent smaller plants from tumbling or to shield sensitive petals from heavy convulsions in transit.
  • The dual functionality is revealed by simply using the insert right side up or upside down. The packaging becomes a flower stand, before being disposed of without negative impact on the environment.

2. Advancing the e-shop market standard packaging with the 4-height SupremeBox

2020 national award win. Ambalaj Ay Yıldızları further awarded the Mondi Warszawa team in Poland in the Industrial and Transportation Packages category for their outstanding work on the game-changing 4-height SupremeBox.

The flexibility of the 4-height SupremeBox with tapeless closure allows for the faster and easier sizing and packing of e-commerce shipping boxes, advancing the market standard by avoiding the need for numerous box sizes in the fulfilment process.

  • A four-tier, instant size-adjustable construction eliminates the need for multiple box sizes, reducing the need for air cargo and the number of trucks on the road.
  • A reinforced, automatic bottom and integrated tapeless closure strip aids a faster packing process, reduces damage in transit and provides easy open and return.
  • The made-to-fit box is made from recyclable materials, creating a positive environmental impact in the booming e-commerce space.

3. Creating sustainable shipping cycles with the EnvelopeMailer

2020 national award win. Mondi’s Bupak team in the Czech Republic were rewarded for their sustainable efforts, winning the E-commerce category in the local OBAL ROKU awards for the EnvelopeMailer.

Chosen for the way that it has revolutionised e-commerce packaging, the EnvelopeMailer limits the use of bubble wrap padding and excess filling material to provide sustainable measures in the product packing and shipping cycle.

Made to fit single or multi-items as well as rectangular and irregular shapes up to 7 cm in height, the EnvelopeMailer’s high flexibility in the fulfilment process, efficiency in handling and economical use of material and space make it an all-around new standard in the market.

  • The unique hybrid design of the corrugated mailer is flexible for flat, elevated or boxed shipment – an alternative to PE-bubble foil padded paper and plastic e-mailer bags.
  • Recyclable and biodegradable – made 100% from renewable resources.
  • Instantly ready to pack and close, the snug fit increases product safety and reduces cargo space in transit, lowering transport emissions.

World-renowned e-commerce packaging solutions accolades.

We are proud of our local award wins, which help elevate our smart solutions to a world stage of recognition.

The OBAL ROKU award is a distinguished Czech certified packaging contest, giving recognition to those working on finding innovative solutions in the market. The Ambalaj Ay Yıldızları awards in Turkey also rewards original designs and unique packaging developments. Both local awards are open for international packaging companies to apply, so competition is high.

The World Packaging Organization accredits both award platforms. The WPO awards, which gives prominence to products based on their superiority in the individual category that makes it stand out from others in the same market globally, will be announced in December.

The consistent innovation from our on-site PDD (Product Development and Design) teams, from design to delivery experience, contributes to a greener and more efficient supply chain in the development of lean-packaging offerings. Ideas that we are proud to see globally recognised.

A virtual look at smart packaging.

In recent years, Packaging Europe has been a regular visitor at AIPIA’s (Active & Intelligent Packaging Industry Association) congresses in Amsterdam. As a physical event was not possible this year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, AIPIA decided to run their 2020 World Congress in Amsterdam as a virtual event.

October 19, 2020 (Packaging Europe) – The digital event was set up to match the physical event as closely as possible, and, like the physical events in previous years, offered a mix of keynotes, presentations on new and tried and tested technology innovations, brand challenges and virtual exhibition stands. Elisabeth Skoda explores just a few of the major talking points at the conference.

Holiday season 2020: Expected consumer spend.

70% are not planning to decrease their holiday spend, but prioritising who they shop for.

October, 2020 (ecommerceDB) – It is no secret anymore that the eCommerce industry has been among the profiteers of the corona crisis. Most of the global top players have seen their sales explode in the wake of the pandemic: ecommerceDB already picked up the quarterly figures of some of the top stores like Amazon, Zooplus, or Nike, which reported outstanding online sales rises in the past months thanks to a surge in online demand during COVID-19 lockdowns.

Drone delivery – what matters to Germans?

More than 70% of Germans are in favor of drone deliveries if they are reliable and eco-friendly.

September, 2020 (ecommerceDB) – In times when online shopping becomes more and more widespread – not only thanks to corona lockdowns – alternative delivery methods have also moved into focus in the industry. Drones are in the center of attention when thinking about possibilities how traffic can be taken off the road and busy city centers relieved, not least in the light of climate change. Many Germans, however, are still reluctant when it comes to the idea of having their shopping delivered to their doorsteps by an unmanned flying object.

2020 best products to sell online.

2020 (Ecommerce Pro) – The end of 2019 will not only bring us into a new year but a whole new decade that is ripe with so much ecommerce business opportunities. Both ecommerce entrepreneurs who find themselves well within the ballpark of ecommerce and those who are looking to build their first online store can only benefit from becoming well-versed with the trends-it is after all one of the things that can lead you to long-term success in online business.
