Re-using shipping-material with „T-Seal“
– And significantly reducing your CO2 emissions and sourcing costs –
Allows the use of existing packages like boxes or mailer-bags multiple times instead of routing them into the recycling process after each customer.
What makes T-Seal unique is the fact that all adhesive- and labeling-areas for a secure shipment are integrated here. The actual body of the package will be left untouched. Therefore, by only exchanging the T-Seal the package is ready for re-use.
T-Seal is a registered application by Kommund, which is available for license business.

For the production of 1 kg of corrugated cardboard, 249 gr of CO2 are emitted. This is a strong argument, why existing shipping-material should be used multiple times. But does this material have to be disassembled into its single ingredients, only to produce new shipping-material again at the end?
The recycling-process for shipping-material itself consumes a lot of Water, Energy and Logistics, which also results in high CO2 emission. Consequently the question arises, why the focus is currently not yet on the lifetime extension of already existing sipping-material?
Re-using a single package only once more using a T-Seal reduces CO2 emissions as well as sourcing costs allocated to the shipping-material for this second shipment by approximately 90%.
End-consumers should always have the choice to request a re-used package and by doing so exhibit sustainable behavior.
Companies are intensifying CO2 neutral conduct anyway. Using the T-Seal now even incentivizes sustainable behavior with cost savings, which should facilitate decision making for the sake of all stakeholders.
