What's the real cost of void fill?

Void fill often seems like a low-cost solution, but the real expense comes from the oversized box behind it. Larger boxes need more filler, take longer to pack, increase freight costs and can raise the risk of transit damage.

When the box fits the product, those costs mostly disappear. Right Size packaging eliminates unnecessary filler and improves efficiency across packing, shipping and product protection.

When businesses reduce packaging costs, it’s not usually because they’ve found a cheaper supplier. More often, it’s because they’re using less packaging overall.

Standard box sizes often lead to excess materials, more void fill and higher freight costs. Right Size packaging helps address this by creating packaging that fits the product more closely.

The result is savings of around 30% on your packaging costs.

Transforming packaging for premium products.

Our customer, Evergreen Shutters, a UK manufacturer of bespoke domestic shutters, faced a challenge familiar to many custom manufacturers: how do you package premium, made-to-order products securely without relying on countless box sizes or void fill?

By implementing Ribble's Right Size packaging solution, they were able to:

✅ Simplify packaging inventory
✅ Create perfectly sized boxes on demand
✅ Improve product protection
✅ Enhance the customer experience

For manufacturers of bespoke or made-to-order products, packaging is often an overlooked way to improve efficiency, reduce waste and enhance customer satisfaction.

Make the packing process easier for your team.

Packing can become more difficult when the box doesn’t fit the product. Teams may spend more time adjusting, filling gaps and working around limitations. Right Size packaging solutions remove these extra steps. Products fit securely from the start, reducing the need for additional materials and manual corrections.

Over time, even small improvements in packing efficiency can add up to significant savings in labour, materials and operational costs.

How does choosing the right packaging partner make a difference to your bottom line?

By reviewing your existing packaging inventory, reducing the number of different box sizes and styles, or introducing Fanfold board, you can simplify procurement, storage and operations.

At Ribble, we help businesses reduce packaging costs the smart way, without compromising on product protection, efficiency or sustainability.

What is fanfold board and why does it matter operationally?

Fanfold board is a continuous sheet of corrugated cardboard used to create boxes as you need them. Instead of holding inventory of dozens of box sizes, you stock one versatile material that can be cut and creased into whatever size you need.

Operationally, this shift removes the burden of managing a large, slow moving box inventory. It frees up storage space and gives you the agility to respond when order profiles change.

It’s a simpler starting point and a far more adaptable system that scales with your operation rather than constraining it.
