Hexafil

Hexafil is an innovative, ultra-efficient eco paper void fill solution engineered to maximise pack-room throughput while minimising environmental impact. Manufactured from 100% recycled paper, Hexafil features a unique geometric design that enables the paper to expand and interlock as it is dispensed. This creates a highly resilient, spring-back structure inside the carton that completely fills empty spaces and prevents product migration or shifting during transit. It is the definitive modern alternative to loose-fill polystyrene peanuts, allowing eco-conscious businesses to transition to plastic-free shipping without sacrificing protection.

What makes Hexafil a better void fill option than standard loose-fill packaging peanuts?
Unlike polystyrene packaging peanuts, Hexafil is 100% plastic-free, fully biodegradable, and recyclable. It packs flat on the roll to save massive amounts of warehouse space and expands dynamically upon dispensing to lock products firmly in place, eliminating the messy settlement common with loose-fill peanuts.

Can Hexafil be used without an expensive automated dispensing machine?
Yes. Hexafil can be pulled and torn manually from its compact dispenser box or integrated into a low-cost manual bench dispenser, making it an accessible upgrade for small e-commerce setups and large logistics hubs alike.

Is Hexafil void fill paper fully recyclable in standard UK domestic waste streams?
Absolutely. Your end-use customers can dispose of Hexafil directly into standard kerbside paper and cardboard recycling bins across the UK, boosting your brand’s green credentials.

How does Hexafil prevent fragile items from shifting inside the box during transit?
The paper features a specialised geometric structure that interlocks with itself under minor compression. This creates a structural block-and-brace effect that fills the empty pocket and absorbs vertical and lateral shocks.

Does Hexafil produce a lot of dust on the packing line?
No. Hexafil is manufactured using premium, long-fibre recycled paper stock that undergoes a strict de-dusting process during production, keeping your warehouse packing benches clean and safe for operators.

What is the storage volume benefit of Hexafil rolls compared to bags of loose fill?
One compact pallet of Hexafil rolls yields the equivalent void-filling volume of multiple rooms filled with traditional loose-fill bags, drastically reducing your storage overheads.

Can Hexafil be used to pack heavy industrial components?
While Hexafil is exceptional for light to medium-weight goods, for ultra-heavy engineering parts, we recommend combining it with our heavy-duty paper cushioning pads or automated PAPERplus® systems.

Is Hexafil safe for packaging organic cosmetics or food items?
Yes, it is non-toxic, chemical-free, and manufactured using clean recycling processes, making it a favourite for organic e-commerce fulfilment.

How can using Hexafil help my business avoid the UK Plastic Packaging Tax?
By completely replacing plastic bubble wraps or air pillows with 100% paper-based Hexafil, your transit packaging becomes entirely tax-exempt and eco-compliant.
