Rethinking supply chains with smart fibre-based packaging

Packaging has evolved into a strategic component of modern supply chains. No longer a passive element, it now plays an active role in reducing waste, optimising transport and supporting regulatory compliance. For companies seeking to improve operational efficiency and environmental performance at the same time, circulair packaging offers a clear advantage.

At Solidus, we develop fibre-based packaging solutions that are not only fit for purpose but also designed to support smarter, more responsible supply chains. With full control over our production process — from raw material to final product — we help businesses meet today’s challenges and tomorrow’s expectations.

Built for logistics, designed for impact

In global supply chains, packaging must do more than protect. It must stack efficiently, handle well, perform under pressure and reflect the quality of the product inside. Our solid board packaging is engineered for strength and consistency, ensuring it meets the rigours of distribution without excess weight or material waste.

Whether you’re moving fresh produce, industrial components or retail-ready goods, the structure and format of your packaging can affect everything from fuel usage to labour costs. That’s why we work closely with our customers to design solutions that enhance loading efficiency and reduce empty space during transit.

Circular thinking at every stage

Reducing the environmental impact of packaging starts with material choice. Solidus uses over 90% recycled fibres in its board, with the ability to recycle those fibres up to 25 times. The result is a renewable, low-waste packaging solution that performs across a wide range of conditions.

But Solidus doesn’t stop at material selection. Our approach to circularity extends into design and logistics. We optimise packaging dimensions to reduce the overall footprint in transport, and we design for easy recovery within existing recycling streams across Europe.

By applying circular design principles to both the product and its journey, we enable businesses to improve not just their packaging, but their entire supply chain.

Data-driven packaging development

In many sectors, small changes in packaging can lead to measurable gains. Less weight per unit means more units per truck. Better stacking means fewer damages. These optimisations are not guesswork they’re the result of targeted analysis and collaborative testing.

Our customers benefit from our in-house labs and experience centres, where we replicate transport conditions, assess performance and refine materials. This data-driven process results in solutions that are both practical and aligned with circular goals.

From waste reduction to brand value

Sustainable packaging is no longer a niche demand. It’s a core part of how companies are evaluated by regulators, investors and consumers. The right packaging strategy can significantly reduce operational waste, lower emissions and improve a company’s sustainability reporting.

It also supports stronger branding. Our advanced printing and finishing capabilities allow companies to communicate their commitment to sustainability directly through their packaging — without compromising shelf appeal.

Smart, sustainable packaging shows that a business is forward-thinking, efficient and responsible. And that’s the kind of message that builds trust in the market.

If your business is looking to reduce complexity, waste and emissions across your logistics process, fibre-based circulair packaging could be the solution. Let’s rethink the role of packaging in your supply chain together.
