Is Secure Paper destruction Over?

40% of small business owners have no protocols in place for securing data - does your company?

Fines, reputation damage and loss of sales could cost your business millions. It seems that all you hear about these days is the risk of cyber data breaches. But the paperless office has yet to come, and there’s still a lot of sensitive information on paper in the workplace. Studies in 2015 show 1 in 5 breaches are still in fact paper, with 73% in house shredding.

Sydney’s Packaging is Stunning, Creative & Insane!

The purpose of packaging, ultimately what sells your product! It draws attention, sends a message, and makes consumers feel a certain way, boldly screams out and always catches your eye first.
The packaging cost, is in the billions per year.” Sustainable packaging”,” environmentally friendly” the package says. Does the consumer really care? Research has shown that this is added value to the product but not the main sell point. Yearly creative competitions are held in Packaging. From Sustainable packaging to Creative designs, from environment friendly to graphic designs. The competitions are fierce, competitive and never ending year after year.

What are consumers buying?
The facts and figures are in! Colours, patterns, space, simple, playful, bold, style, modern, texture and bright. Other major factors are multiple purpose and sneak- peak.
Sneak Peak? Yes the consumers are more likely to be attracted to the product that they can feel, pick up and see. Not the old plastic stuff you are thinking about but SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING.
We have all seen it on TV, mostly for food and “sous vide” cooking at a Michelin star restaurant. This Sydney skin packaging is a little bit different. Any item placed on a cardboard and vacuum sealed to show off your item.

Where in Sydney can I do this Packaging?
Not many places at all offer this service in Australia. It has always been done offshore. The name you can trust is Hoxton Industries. Located conveniently in south west Sydney. Cheap, affordable but yet Bold, and convenient on the retail shelf.
