Zoo Hardware introduces new cardboard packaging

Zoo Hardware, one of the UK’s leading designers and suppliers of architectural door hardware, is undertaking significant investment to improve the recycled content of its packaging and its ability to be recycled post-use.

As part of this commitment, Zoo Hardware has introduced new cardboard packaging across key product ranges including tubular latches, hinges, locks and several door handle ranges and accessories.

Every aspect of the packaging has been carefully considered to ensure it is fully recyclable at the end of life, including the box colour and reduced use of ink.

The commitment forms part of a long-term strategy to achieve 100% sustainable packaging across all product ranges by 2026 as part of Zoo Hardware’s parent company, Tyman’s, wider 2030 Sustainability Excellence Roadmap.

The Roadmap outlines proactive measures to minimise the Group’s impact on the environment and includes a commitment to also eliminating waste to landfill by 2026.

Andy Hullock, Product Support Manager at Zoo Hardware, said:

“As one of the industry’s leading suppliers of architectural door hardware we understand the responsibility we have to not only improve the sustainability of our products and operations in line with legislative requirements, but to support our extensive network of customers in continuously improving their own environmental credentials. 

“The introduction of our new cardboard packaging is the first step forwards in our long-term commitment to achieving 100% sustainable packaging by 2026 as part of our wider ‘eliminate, minimise, replace’ strategy, which outlines how we can increase the level of recycled material within all our packaging, while simultaneously reducing the required level of materials.”

Following the introduction of the Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT) in April 2022 and Extended Producer Responsibility on 1st January 2023, Zoo Hardware has been proactively supporting its customers in achieving compliance with the latest legislative requirements to achieve a collective reduction in the production and consumption of plastic throughout the entire supply chain.
