Expand your market share by using our bag-in-box solution for sunscreen packaging. When most people think of bag-in-box packaging, they think of boxed wine and other liquids. But more products once deemed unconventional for bag-in-box are starting to become more common in this format. One emerging application for bag-in-box packaging is sunscreen.
Benefits of Bag-in-Box Packaging for Sunscreen
So what are some of the benefits of bag-in-box packaging for sunscreen? Here’s a look:
- Maximize product evacuation: Bag-in-box packaging can be outfitted with fitments and spouts, which helps maximize product evacuation from the flexible bag. The same can’t be said about sunscreen packaged in bottles and rigid containers. Product dispensing is also very user-friendly.
- Reduce transportation costs while maximizing product protection: Because bag-in-box packaging tends to be lighter and easier to stack than other types of packages, transportation tends to be easier and more efficient – all of which tends to lead to reduced costs. Because bag-in-box takes up less space on trucks, you can also get more packages on a single truckload.
- Sustainability: We’ll get into more of this in the next section, but bag-in-box packaging offers a variety of sustainability benefits over conventional packaging formats. Though it tends to only apply to food and beverages, bag-in-box can also help extend product life.
What is Bag-in-Box (BIB) Packaging?
Bag-in-box packaging is a format that combines rigid and flexible packaging styles. Fitting to the name, bag-in-box consists of an outer shell made of cardboard and a flexible bag containing the product that fits inside of it. Traditionally used for wine and other beverages, bag-in-box is now being considered for other applications, like sunscreen packaging. And while this may seem unconventional, that’s part of the way brands can develop competitive advantages over their competition.
Environmental Impact
Bag-in-box offers sustainability benefits that can’t be matched by other packaging formats. One is the fact that the box portion of the package is easily recyclable. The bag portion may also be recycled depending on the type of film that’s used.
Also, you can get more bag-in-box packaging on a single truckload than you can with other formats. This means you can ship more product in fewer truckloads, which helps reduce carbon emissions and also reduce your brand’s overall carbon footprint.
Cost Savings of Bag-In-Box Packaging
Compared to conventional packaging formats, bag-in-box is very cost-effective. And when you combine both the environmental benefits and the sustainability benefits, the value proposition becomes even stronger. Throw in the fact that brands can save on transportation costs based on the information we shared above, and it can be an even more cost-effective format.
