Pampering program for rabbits, hamsters & Co. - Freshly harvested hay in grass paper packaging

For many millions of Germans*, small animals and rodents such as guinea pigs or rabbits are part of the family. After cats and dogs, who live in many more households, these small, furry animals are among the most popular housemates, also because keeping them usually means less effort and takes up less space. But the affection that is shown to the little four-legged friends is all the greater. And for their species-appropriate nutrition and care, providers such as JR Farm from Bavaria have an extensive range of products that promote a healthy life for the small animals. Hay from natural mountain meadows or organic hay, for example, are part of the offer from the Ruisinger family, who have managed the constantly growing farm for generations. Südwestkarton produces pure corrugated board packaging for JR Farm using grass paper, in which one kilogram of hay can be safely stowed.

The play instinct is also satisfied

In addition to the prioritized requirement that the carton must be completely closed to avoid any product loss, the new packaging offers other important attributes. The construction dispenses with reinforcement strips or tear-off threads in order to obtain a consistent one-material solution. The box developed is equipped with a fully overlapping plug-in base and lateral plug-in connection as well as an integrated carrying handle. The latter is formed from the cover flaps.

As a further special feature, the experts at Südwestkarton have made sure that three sides of the box have clean and at the same time tight perforations so that the box can be converted into a play house for the small animals after it has been emptied via break-out openings. The resulting windows give the packaging a second life, in which it entices the furry cuddly toys to hide and play. If the packaging is no longer needed, the corrugated board’s functioning material cycle waits for it to be reintegrated through recycling.
