Why Use Crinkled Shredded Paper Instead Of Non-Crinkled - Shredded Paper

Submitted by lizseyi on Mon, 08/12/2024 - 05:37

As we have often explained here on the Shredded-Paper.co.uk blog, shredded paper can have a multitude of uses! However, there might be certain circumstances in which flat paper cut into strips – or as we call it, “straight cut” shredded paper – isn’t your first choice, or the best choice for the application you have in mind.

Instead, you might look to source shredded paper in crinkled form. Crinkled shredded paper is so-called as the strips are folded at intervals, resulting in a “crimped” pattern resembling an accordion.

So, do those little folds make a meaningful difference? Yes, they certainly can do! You might use this “zig zag” paper from our online store for purposes like those explained below.

Cushioning
If you run an ecommerce business, you may have many good reasons to order shredded crinkle paper in bulk from Shredded-Paper.co.uk Those could include our discounted wholesale pricing (available on orders of more than 50kg of paper in a single colour or mix) and fast turnaround times.

There is also the fact that, as the paper is crinkled, it has a “springy” texture. So, when packing a product in preparation for dispatching it, you can fill out the box with the paper. This way, even if the parcel takes a bit of rough and tumble, you can be confident of the product inside remaining protected from damage.

Visual appeal

Are you putting together a gift hamper? If so, just imagine how enchanting it could look with reams of folded shredded paper making up a “nest” inside the container. This can work especially well if the hamper is themed around Easter (yes, it is a long way off, but it would pay for you to plan well ahead).

This brings us neatly to another incentive for you to buy shredded crinkle paper in bulk from our team: you can choose from over 30 colours and mixes. With our bespoke service, we can even send an entrepreneur a batch of paper matching their company’s branding colours.

Eco-friendliness

Many of us highly value sustainability, and rightly so. As an ethically minded business, we are proud to report that our Zig Zag shredded kraft paper — whether you get hold of it in 2mm or 4mm strips — comprises 100% recycled material that is, in turn, entirely recyclable.
We can also send you this paper in reusable and biodegradable packaging. For example, when you ask us to provide you with over 50kg of shredded crinkle paper in bulk, the order is likely to arrive in a cardboard box that you could choose to repurpose, such as for wrapping Christmas presents.
