TANAX Product Lineup

Efforts to consider the environment have become an essential element of corporate activities. On the other hand, environmental measures in the packaging process often face concerns such as "not knowing where to start" and "worrying that workability or quality may decline," which can lead to a reluctance to take concrete steps for improvement. TANAX's environmental solutions are designed to reduce environmental impact while maintaining the protective performance and workability required in packaging. Rather than treating environmental measures as a special initiative, we propose improvements that can be implemented seamlessly within the packaging process, thereby supporting sustainable efforts.

WavePAC is an environmentally friendly paper air cushioning material made by laminating FSC-certified paper with biodegradable film. It replaces traditional plastic air cushioning materials, achieving a reduction in plastic use, carbon emissions, and material quantity simultaneously. It also complies with PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation), contributing to the optimization of packaging space and enhancing brand value. It is a sustainable packaging solution that balances environmental considerations with logistics efficiency.

WavePAC is an environmentally friendly paper air cushioning material made by laminating FSC-certified paper with biodegradable film. It replaces traditional plastic air cushioning materials, achieving plastic reduction, decarbonization, and material volume reduction simultaneously. It comes in two shapes: Type 7.1 (pillow type) and Type 8.3 (tube type). Type 7.1 is a small pillow shape suitable for filling small gaps and securing products, while Type 8.3 is a wide tube shape suitable for wrapping entire products and protecting larger spaces. They can be used interchangeably based on the size and shape of the packaging and the required protection area. Both types can be used for protecting lightweight to medium-weight items, and the ability to select the optimal shape according to the packaging contents and box size is a key feature.

WavePAC is an environmentally friendly paper air cushioning material made by laminating FSC-certified paper with biodegradable film. Compared to traditional plastic air cushioning materials, it significantly reduces the amount of material used while maintaining cushioning properties, workability, and aesthetic appeal. With over 60 rich color variations, the packaging itself becomes part of brand expression, creating an emotional experience upon unboxing. Packaging unified in brand colors promotes repeat purchases and attracts new customers, serving as a promotional element that enhances both customer satisfaction and sales. Additionally, it is compatible with PPWR due to its environmentally friendly materials, making it a sustainable packaging solution that simultaneously achieves environmental consideration, logistics efficiency, and promotional effectiveness.

Among the processes that support logistics, packaging and packing are areas that are often overlooked. The challenges faced on-site, such as labor shortages, rising logistics costs, and the need for environmental considerations, are becoming increasingly complex each year, and many of these issues stem from the "packaging process." Since its founding in the Meiji era, TANAX has continuously engaged with the concept of "packaging." We view packaging and packing not merely as operational processes, but as crucial elements that support the quality, efficiency, and environmental responsiveness of logistics, and we propose improvements tailored to the specific needs of each site.

In the logistics field, there is a tendency for challenges in the packaging and packing processes to accumulate amidst the daily shipping operations. Do you have any of the following concerns? ▼ Insufficient manpower is causing packaging work to become a bottleneck - It is difficult to secure workers - During peak seasons, the work cannot keep up ▼ There is a lot of waste in packaging materials and box sizes - The boxes are too large for the products, resulting in unnecessary shipping costs - A large amount of cushioning material is used to fill gaps ▼ I want to focus on environmental considerations, but I don't know where to start - I want to review excessive packaging - There is increasing demand for reducing plastic and waste

EcoBand is a reusable, environmentally friendly band designed to prevent cargo collapse in logistics settings. It can be used as an alternative to traditional stretch film, contributing to waste reduction, CO₂ emission reduction, and lower running costs. It can be secured with just one wrap, making it highly efficient and leading to reduced work time and less burden on workers. A wide range of products is available to accommodate various cargo types, including pallets, cage trolleys, carts, and racks.
