Frequently Asked Questions

Flexi-Hex is a patented, honeycomb packaging sleeve made from 100% recycled paper. Designed to protect fragile items during transit, it offers a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic packaging. Its unique structure provides robust protection while being recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable.

Flexi-Hex sleeves are highly versatile and can be used to protect a wide range of products, including bottles, electronics, cosmetics, ceramics, glassware, surfboards, skateboards, and more. The sleeves are available in various sizes to suit different items and industries.
