To create a branded mailing bag solution that is re-usable, reflects the Get that Trend brand and reduces their carbon footprint.
Working with online retailer, Get That Trends team we designed a range of branded mailing bags that ticked all three of the criteria. The packaging design was minimal and modern using crisp white film featuring a light grey print and bold statement. To reduce the carbon footprint of the branded mailing bag, we suggested a mailing bag material blend containing a minimum of 85% recycled polythene. For every 1 tonne of virgin LDPE material use avoided, is the equivalent embodied carbon saving of 2.621tCO2. A second glue strip was added to the branded mailing bag design making this re-usable and easy for customers to return unwanted garments and avoid the requirement of a new packaging item.
Thanks to our closed loop recycling system Get That Trend are collecting and returning the waste polythene generated by their business processes. This helps keep valuable polythene waste in the economy, which in turn helps the industry reduce its dependency on new virgin materials, as well as less waste going to landfill. Get that Trends new packaging range also meets the new UK plastic packaging tax criteria of a minimum of 30% recycled content which was introduced in April 2022.
