Big and small businesses alike handle a lot of shipments for equipment and supplies packaged in cardboard boxes. To separate all the interior components, most boxes have box partitions. General Partition Company specializes in the design and manufacturing of box partitions, offering products like polycoated chipboard, SBS, and corrugated partitions. Boxes are often saved and reused for a number of purposes, but partitions don’t have the same luck. Below you can find some ways to reuse box partitions around the office.
Organize that Supply Closet
Most supply closets have stationery strewn across various shelves and drawers. In a busy work environment, it is easy to forget about keeping the office supplies neat and organized when there is so much work to do. It is only when looking for a particular writing utensil or paper product that you wish someone would take care of the mess. A great way to organize your office supply closet is to reuse the interior box packaging provided with your box. Since box partitions come in different sizes and materials, they can be manipulated to systemize all stationery needs. For example, small partitions are ideal for separating various writing utensils, while bigger partitions can hold different writing materials.
Reshipping
We all have items in need of of one time shipping for sampling, machining, labeling and other needs. Most of us use bubble wrap and pieces of old packaging to make the shipment safe. Using an old box partition is a great way to protect these one time shipments. The chiboard partitions can be cut down to the size of the box using scissors or a box cutter, and the item or items placed in the center cell giving it a ton of protection in transit. Old box partitions can also be placed on top and bottom of a box to add stacking strength and integrity.
Recycle
If all else fails, recycle! All of our products, from the polycoated chipboard to the SBS partitions, are made from 100% recyclable materials. We pride ourselves on creating eco-friendly products, and we hope that our clients feel the same way by taking the time to recycle any cardboard boxes or partitions received from General Partition Company.
