E-Commerce Packaging

Diverse materials for e-commerce packaging at every step of the journey

As e-commerce becomes common practice, packaging solutions need to adjust for the complex and demanding conditions of the journey. Innovative e-commerce packaging is designed to withstand shipment, protect products and offer sustainability benefits. At Dow, we offer materials to support e-commerce packaging that can be designed to thrive at every step of the journey, including what happens to the packaging after it reaches the customers doorstep.

Graphic for Protective Packaging


The order has been placed, it’s time to get your product to the customer. Protective e-commerce packaging helps ensure it gets where it’s supposed to go, exactly the way it was intended to arrive. Our materials for protective e-commerce packaging support structures that use less material, offer enhanced protection and can be designed for recyclability after use.
 

Graphic for product packaging


E-commerce packaging starts with how you package your product. Is it designed to withstand the journey? Can it make it across the country, or even across the globe? Product packaging can be designed for e-commerce, from size, shape and weight to durability and protection. Optimal product packaging should protect your product from the many unexpected bumps along the way and do so in an efficient and sustainable way. Dow materials support lightweight packaging structures that offer strong protection and durability and can be designed for recylability after use.

Graphic for Secondary & Tertiary


You have worked to design an incredible product and now you must send it on its journey. If it’s making a stop at a distribution center or warehouse, secondary and tertiary packaging helps get it there safely. Far too often the demanding and unexpected conditions of the journey can lead to unnecessary product waste. Load stability and a secured pallet help ensure a safe journey with minimal waste.

Sustainability solutions for e-commerce packaging

Post-consumer recycled (PCR) resins are rapidly growing in use across the plastics industry. Dow’s REVOLOOP™ Recycled Plastics Resins is helping to incorporate PCR resins into films for use in a variety of applications – especially in the e-commerce packaging marketplace.
