Globe Packaging has recently become an authorised UK distributor of Fill-It's paper void fill box dispensers, making the system available to e-commerce businesses seeking a recyclable alternative to plastic-based packaging materials. The partnership expands Globe Packaging's sustainable packaging range as UK businesses face growing regulatory and commercial pressure to reduce plastic waste.

The timing reflects shifting conditions in both the e-commerce and packaging sectors. According to the Office for National Statistics, online retail accounted for approximately 30% of total UK retail sales in 2024, sustaining demand for protective packaging at scale. Separately, WRAP estimates that flexible plastic packaging — including the air pillows and packing peanuts commonly used as void fill — accounts for a significant proportion of plastic packaging waste in the UK, making paper-based alternatives an increasingly practical consideration for businesses working toward sustainability commitments.
The Fill-It system is a manual paper void fill dispenser made from 100% recycled materials and designed to be fully recyclable through standard paper waste streams. Each unit delivers paper void fill from a 450-metre roll, providing cushioning for products in transit without requiring electricity or specialist training. The compact footprint makes it suitable for facilities where floor space is at a premium.
As an authorised distributor, Globe Packaging supplies Fill-It dispensers in both individual and bulk quantities, with same-day dispatch available alongside the company's wider range of void fill and cushioning products.
"We're seeing more of our customers ask specifically about paper-based alternatives — not just because of the Plastic Packaging Tax, but because their own customers are pushing back on plastic in the box," said Anish Aggarwal, co-founder and managing director of Globe Packaging. "The Fill-It system fits well because it doesn't require any change to how a packing team works. It's a straightforward swap that lets businesses move in the right direction without disrupting their operation."
