hey circle has unveiled its latest innovation: the foldable XXL reusable shipping box, measuring 60x40x40 cm. This box is designed to accommodate large and heavy items, offering a sustainable alternative to single-use cardboard boxes. Notably, it incurs no oversize charges from parcel carriers, making it both eco-friendly and cost-effective.

Environmental and Economic Benefits
Utilizing the XXL reusable box can lead to significant reductions in packaging waste and CO₂ emissions. Over its lifecycle, each box can save approximately 1,750 grams of CO₂ equivalents per euro invested, outperforming even photovoltaic systems in terms of carbon savings. Additionally, businesses can achieve up to 50% savings in packaging costs compared to single-use alternatives.

Cost-efficiency compared to single-use boxes and rigid plastic containers
The hey circle XXL box meets all requirements for standard parcel shipping: It is conveyor-system compatible, can be securely sealed with a tamper-evident seal or sticker, and has no protruding parts. Like the XL version (60 × 40 × 20 cm), it easily integrates into existing shipping processes – without any additional handling fees from shipping providers.
The box is designed for long-term use and withstands up to 50 reuse cycles and 15 kg of total load depending on use. This not only saves disposable packaging, but also reduces packaging costs.

Designed with Logistics in Mind
The box's foldable design allows for efficient storage and return logistics. Its robust construction ensures it withstands multiple shipping cycles, making it ideal for intralogistics, store replenishment, and supplier transport. The patented folding mechanism and durable materials ensure longevity and performance.

Ready to order
The hey circle XXL returnable shipping box costs around €40 per unit depending on order volume. With up to 50 reuse cycles, this results in a cost of only €0.80 per use. In comparison, a single-use cardboard box of similar size typically costs around €1.20 – for one-time use only.
The first production batch is partially reserved for existing pre-orders. The foldable XXL reusable shipping box is now available for order.
