KUBI embraces change with 100% plastic-free packaging

KUBI dryglove system

The award-winning KUBI dryglove system has been at the forefront of dive exploration for over seven years, enabling cutting-edge technical and cave divers across the globe to push the very limits of exploration. Inspired by their pioneering spirit, KUBI has committed itself to an equally bold step forward – to rid its full range of products of all plastic packaging for good. From 1 July 2018, all KUBI dry-glove systems and accessories will be supplied in 100% recyclable paper packaging.

By far the biggest change can be seen in the KUBI standard dry-glove kit, which is now delivered free of all plastic packaging. KUBI has gone a lot further than simply substituting plastic bags for more environmentally-friendly alternatives – it’s gone back to the drawing board with a fundamental rethink of how best to deliver its popular dry-glove product in a way that considerably reduces the impact on the environment. The outer plastic packaging bag, header card and staples have been removed completely and replaced with an attractive 100% recyclable cardboard swing tag attached directly to the handy zippered KUBI storage bag. Inside, core components are now contained within sealed paper bags.

The KUBI range of dry-glove accessories have undergone a similar rethink with the complete removal of all plastic packaging. All KUBI accessory products will be delivered in sealed paper bags conveniently colour-coded using water-based dyes. Core components including KUBI aluminium rings and sealing O-rings will be delivered in red paper bags, while latex outer gloves will be delivered in black paper bags. Completing the trio of KUBI accessory products, thermal glove liners will be packaged in warm-coloured orange paper bags, reflecting the warming nature of the gloves they contain. All paper bags used throughout the accessories range are 100% recyclable.

“Plastic pollution poses a very real threat to the environment and particularly the oceans. Clearly it’s an unsustainable situation and KUBI has taken the bold pro-active decision to make a stand. Working with key suppliers, we challenged ourselves why packaging was there, what purpose it had and what options could be available to deliver a more sustainable product. By removing the plastic traditionally used to package our dry-glove systems and accessories, we will be reducing not only our own but our customers’ impact on the environment. This is simply about doing the right thing. We are not saying it is perfect, but believe we have made a very big step in the right direction.” commented Peter Wilson of KUBI.
