Why Flexi-Hex?

Attitudes towards our environment and plastic production are rapidly changing. As we become more aware of the challenges currently facing the world, the greater we understand the need for dramatic change.

At Flexi-Hex®, we are passionate about removing plastic from the packaging industry and protecting the things we value through innovative and smart design. Our cardboard packaging solutions prove that paper can be stronger than plastic, that quality doesn’t need to come at the detriment of the environment and that the switch to plastic-free packaging is easy.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Our USPs

 
We believe that good design should be practical, effective, and attractive, and we carry these values into everything we create. All our packaging solutions are made entirely from paper using minimal material and have a clean design, so that the experience of opening your package is as enjoyable as the product itself. We’re constantly innovating our products, so they are not only biodegradable, recyclable and plastic-free; but strong, flexible, and easy to use. We pride ourselves on being a superior alternative to plastic packaging that serves the same purpose – of protecting items from damage – with far less impact on the environment.
