Sparck celebrates 100 million box milestone

SPARCK Technologies, the new name for Packaging by Quadient, is celebrating a milestone after the company revealed 100 million boxes have been produced on its packaging machines globally.

As Sparck’s CVP Everest and CVP Impack packaging systems make each cardboard box to the exact size required for every particular order, the company said it calculates that some 34,250,000 sq m of cardboard has been saved through the use of its technology, equating to the preservation of 46,000 trees.

Jo Bradley, business development manager at Sparck Technologies, said, “Hitting this key milestone of one hundred million boxes really brings home the growing pace of adoption of right-size packaging technology and the important role it is playing in making e-commerce more sustainable. Our calculations relating to the significant total savings in resources and transport that have been achieved, gives some idea of the collective, positive impact individual companies can make by using available technology to right-size their packaging.”
