The SIRPLUS success story continues in online shipping

The beginnings for the SIRPLUS founders were accompanied by great challenges, the start-up idea was initially laughed at on the well-known TV start-up show "Die Höhle der Löwen". (https://www.vox.de/cms/die-hoehle-der-loewen2019-georg-kofler-platzt-beim-sirplus-pitzder-collar-4409200.html). “SIRPLUS is a Germany-wide impact startup that fights against food waste. We bring excess groceries back into circulation by offering them for sale in our “rescue markets” and in our online shop.”* This is how the young company, which has meanwhile become very successful, describes its philosophy.

Cooperation has now been agreed with 700 producers and wholesalers, so SIRPLUS saves perfectly edible food that the food banks don't pick up. In doing so, the founders are putting their idea into practice to help reduce food waste and create more awareness of this important topic. And their success has long proved them right. More and more interested parties are using the SIRPLUS offer, which has established nationwide availability with the online shop. The experts at Wepoba Wellpappenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG have developed a new online box made from recyclable corrugated cardboard for shipping. The range of boxes includes snack products, organic and vegan, veggie and subscription boxes in two sizes.

With the growing success of SIRPLUS, the company was faced with new challenges: the packing and shipping of the goods had to be accelerated and adapted to the increasing demand. As a solution, Wepoba Wellpappenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG designed a shipping carton based on Fefco 0703 - a punched, one-piece and foldable carton that is delivered folded and simply set up. Supplemented with self-adhesive strips and tear-off strips, the boxes meet the requirement for quick and easy handling, which gives employees capacity and time for other activities. In addition, the packaging supplied from a single source always ensures consistent quality. Parallel to these technical criteria, SIPRLUS also used the changeover to implement a friendly, authentic branding for their boxes. Wepoba Wellpappenfabrik implements the print motif with a 3-colour flexo direct print, the boxes are made of EB corrugated cardboard.
