The future is Precycled To reduce waste, we start with the end in mind, helping you to use less packaging. We offer creative, intelligent solutions that stamp out packaging waste before it is created, reducing your carbon footprint and impact on the environment from the outset, before the need to re-use or recycle.

What is Packaging Precycling?
Precycling is much more than simply using fewer packaging materials. 23907 Hub Packaging Brochure v6.indd 5
It is the practice of cutting waste off at source; one of the central tenets of a culture of reduction, re-use and recycling. By adopting a culture of packaging precycling, partnering with a professional supplier, any business can streamline their packaging use to reduce costs and achieve sustainability targets.
3 Hub is changing the conversation, putting packaging best practice at the heart of every organization. We provide valued insight and guidance, designed to support businesses wishing to respond to their dynamic commercial and environmental landscape. Have a no-nonsense conversation with us to discover why precycling with Hub Packaging makes good business sense.

The Hub Eco-Lite Foundation: towards a sustainable future
At Hub, we are committed to a brighter tomorrow and a healthier planet for future generations. The establishment of the Hub Eco-Lite Foundation represents our pledge to give something back. Through this framework, we aim to support the communities our staff and our clients live and work in, across Ireland and Northern Ireland. It’s our way of practicing what we preach.
23907 Hub Packaging Brochure v6.indd 6
Key objectives of the Foundation are:
+
To demonstrate leadership on environmental best practice by continually reviewing our own carbon footprint and seeking out ways to reduce our impact on the environment.
+
To encourage the next generation by investigating and implementing schemes for schools including the installation of low-carbon technology such as solar panels, rainwater harvesting, biodiversity resources and more.
+
To promote a precycling culture wherever possible, including the potential introduction of our own electric company vehicles, emblazoned with the key messages, to take Hub’s ethos on the road across Ireland.

of – and backing that up with the knowledge and product lines your business needs to reach its full potential.
