Biodegradable Loose Fill, Eco-Friendly Void Fill Packaging
Biodegradable loose fill (eco packing peanuts) is the sustainable alternative to polystyrene chips. Made from natural starch, it’s compostable and water-soluble, providing reliable void fill and shock absorption without plastic waste.
Why choose biodegradable loose fill?
It cushions products, fills empty spaces and prevents movement in transit—just like conventional chips—but breaks down safely after use. Ideal for brands reducing single-use plastics while maintaining professional packing performance.
How to use it
Line the base of your cardboard box, place items, then pour chips around and above until the carton is snug. The interlocking pieces stabilise irregular shapes and protect fragile goods from knocks and drops.
