The opportunity

Otter Surfboards handcraft beautiful, personalised wooden surfboards, paddleboards, bellyboards, and handplanes using timber sourced from local, regenerative woodlands.

Staying true to their eco-conscious values, the team were looking for paper packaging that not only matched their sustainable ethos but also worked seamlessly across their diverse range of boardsports products.

The solution

We use our Lite, Mid, and XL sleeves from the Strength range to make sure Otter’s products reach their customers safely.

In their own words

“We choose to use Flexi-Hex for packaging our surfboards and bellyboards because of its sustainability credentials and its innovative and functional use. First and foremost, it protects our boards really well. Honestly, we couldn’t find anything on the market that protects in the way that bubble wrap can AND biodegrades.”
