Discover sustainable, cost-effective packaging solutions with Epic Sourcing. Import from top suppliers in China and Vietnam with full supply chain support.

Source Smarter, Package Better

For modern brands, packaging is no longer just protection—it's part of the product. Whether you need food-safe pouches, recyclable bottles, or biodegradable mailers, getting it right starts with the right supplier.

Epic Sourcing connects Kiwi businesses with packaging manufacturers that meet both aesthetic and sustainability goals.

Key Considerations for Sustainable Packaging

1. Material Impact

From rPET and PBAT to FSC-certified paper, packaging materials can directly influence your product's environmental footprint and market appeal.

2. End-Use Suitability

Packaging must align with the needs of your product: barrier protection for food, drop-test resilience for electronics, or temperature tolerance for skincare.

3. Brand Experience

Sustainable doesn’t mean boring. Good packaging elevates unboxing and builds trust. Explore custom printing, embossing, and structure options with your supplier.

4. Compliance and Certifications

Look for manufacturers that meet standards like FSC, BRC, and GRS. Certifications provide credibility and simplify export compliance.

What Makes a Supplier Epic?

The best packaging suppliers:

• Share clear spec sheets and performance tests
• Use internationally certified materials
• Provide structural samples for prototyping
• Offer support for design, printing, and post-production QA

Common Packaging Pitfalls

Poor Fit or Seal Integrity

Incorrectly sized or poorly sealed packaging can lead to spoilage or damage. Sampling and testing reduce risk.

Missed Print Expectations

Print colours and placements often differ between screen and final run. Always approve pre-production proofs.

Incompatible Materials

Not all sustainable materials work for all products. Consider durability, regulatory constraints, and recyclability for your specific use case.

Summary

Sustainable packaging is no longer niche—it’s expected. With the right partners, Kiwi businesses can lead the way with products that look good, function well, and reflect values that resonate. Epic Sourcing brings clarity, control, and creativity to every packaging project.
