THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL PACKAGING

Bubble wrap, foam and cardboard dividers are costing you more than you think

Every year, New Zealand wineries spend thousands replacing bottles damaged in transit — and the cost goes beyond breakage. With the NZ Waste Minimisation Act now driving Regulated Product Stewardship (RPS) obligations, wine and spirits brands face mounting pressure to eliminate single-use plastic packaging. On top of that, customers receiving bubble-wrapped bottles get an unboxing experience that doesn't match the quality of what's inside.

  • Flexi-Hex fits 99% of bottle shapes

  • ISTA 3A certified for courier transit

  • Zero additional equipment needed

  • Kerbside recyclable in NZ

Award-Winning

Flexi-Hex Pinch Top Box

Award-winning 1, 2, or 3-bottle ecommerce box. Assembles in just 14 seconds — no tape, no tools, no training required.

Pinch Top Boxes
from $74.75

The Flexi-Hex Pinch Top packaging solution was designed primarily for e-commerce as a reliable way of delivering bottles through the post. Available in three sizes, it consists of two main components; the Flexi-Hex sleeve and a uniquely engineered, cardboard postal box.

Individual bottles are inserted into our honeycomb sleeve before being placed into a self-sealing cardboard box with an additional protective base insert. The pinch at the top of the box prevents further movement of the bottle within transit, therefore avoiding damage and breakages.

This is fuss-free packaging that securely delivers bottles directly to customers and is a superior alternative to plastic bubble or air-filled plastic. Its smart design elevates the unboxing experience.

  • Plastic-free, recyclable, biodegradable and compostable

  • Available in single, double and triple sizes for bottles up to a maximum height of 320mm

  • A smart design ideal for e-commerce that improves the consumer unpacking experience

  • Reduces breakage rates through innovative engineering

  • Compact to store and lightweight for economical shipping

  • Can be customised with company branding
