Keen Footwear launches new eco-friendly shoebox
15/11/2006
US-based performance footwear company Keen has introduced its 100% hybrid green design shoebox which uses less material, less ink and less energy, while at the same time making it easy to recycle or reuse. It uses natural, water-based latex glue, folds flat, allowing for easy disassembly and recycling, using only soya based inks and uses bio-degradable materials.The Hybrid Green Box uses approximately 30% less material than the company’s current box, allowing for more space at retail. This also means that during box production, less power is used. The new design will be rolled out across the entire spring/summer 2007 collection.
