Reuse & Recyle

At CUSHIONFLUTE our aim is to provide a sustainable, functional and convenient alternative to expanded polystyrene (EPS) boxes and containers.

As a socially responsible manufacturer we strive to minimise impact on the environment and through collaborative networks keep packaging materials out of landfill and maximise the retained value of the resource. 

Through our membership with APCO and guidance set out by the Australian Packaging Covenant & the Sustainable Packaging Guidelines, Cushionflute is on track to meet Australia’s 2025 NATIONAL PACKAGING TARGETS. 

Foremost the Cushionflute carton is a reusable and recyclable container. With attentive use the carton can be reused numerous times and at the end of its service life, be deconstructed and recycled.  

Cleaning

Before each reuse we recommend the carton be thoroughly cleaned. To clean simply use warm soapy water to remove any remaining debris or odours. Dry and then rinse or wipe with isopropyl alcohol (70%) to disinfect.
