Flexi-Hex®
Flexi-Hex® is a honeycomb paper sleeve system designed for the safe shipping of bottles, jars, tubes, and similarly shaped items. The hexagonal paper structure expands to grip the product as it's inserted, creating a snug, protective fit without tape, foam, or plastic — then collapses flat for storage and despatch. Fully biodegradable, recyclable, plastic free, and manufactured carbon neutrally.
It's become a popular choice for wine, spirits, cosmetics, and artisan food brands looking to replace polystyrene bottle shippers and plastic bubble wrap with something that performs as well and looks significantly better when it arrives.
Flexi-Hex® product range
Flexi-Hex® Bottle Boxes are self-contained shipping boxes with integrated Flexi-Hex sleeve lining — everything you need for a complete bottle despatch solution in one product. No separate sleeve insertion required, and no outer box needed. Available for single and multiple bottle configurations.
Flexi-Hex® Mini Sleeves are individual honeycomb paper sleeves designed to wrap and protect a single bottle inside an existing outer box. The sleeve expands to grip the bottle securely and absorbs impact from all directions. Useful when you already have a suitable outer box and just need a plastic-free inner protection solution.
Flexi-Hex® Air Sleeves use an air-filled honeycomb structure for additional cushioning — suited to more fragile or higher-value bottles where maximum impact protection is required.
Protective Caps protect the neck and stopper of a bottle during transit — available separately and commonly used alongside Mini Sleeves for a complete protection solution.
Flexi-Hex® Bottle Box Bundles combine Bottle Boxes and Mini Sleeves in one purchase — the most cost-effective way to buy if you need both for a regular despatch operation.
How Flexi-Hex® compares to other bottle packaging
For businesses currently using polystyrene bottle shippers, Flexi-Hex® is the most direct like-for-like sustainable replacement — comparable protection, significantly better sustainability credentials, and a noticeably better unboxing experience.
For a simpler and lower-cost cardboard bottle packaging option, our cardboard bottle boxes with internal cell dividers are worth comparing — they offer reliable protection for wine and spirits despatch at a lower unit cost, without the premium presentation element of Flexi-Hex.
For a broader view of plastic-free protective packaging for fragile items, our eco alternatives to bubble wrap range covers additional options including paper cushioning and corrugated wrapping. For tissue paper and presentation wrapping to complement bottle packaging, see our tissue paper range.
