Tansox Sustainability Strategy.
Our commitment to responsible flexible packaging manufacturing — from materials to operations to certifications. Quanzhou, China.
Tansox has manufactured flexible packaging in Quanzhou, Fujian since the mid-1970s. Sustainability is not a new initiative — it is embedded in the economics and culture of a manufacturer that has operated a single, continuously-improved facility for over 50 years. Our sustainability strategy focuses on material innovation, manufacturing efficiency, responsible sourcing and helping our clients meet their own ESG and packaging sustainability targets.
Six pillars of responsible manufacturing.
Each pillar represents an active programme at our Quanzhou facility — not an aspiration.
Material Innovation
Developing recyclable, biodegradable, compostable, PCR and bio-based film options across all Tansox product lines.
Responsible Sourcing
FSC-certified kraft paper, verified resin supply chains and traceable raw material inputs across our Quanzhou facility.
Manufacturing Efficiency
Continuous improvement in energy use, trim waste reduction and production yield at our in-house facility.
Certifications & Compliance
ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified, issued by EACC. REACH, RoHS and BPA-free compliance across all product lines.
Client Partnership
Working with brands to identify eco material alternatives, provide compliance documentation and support ESG reporting requirements.
Continuous Improvement
Active roadmap to expand recyclable, mono-material and bio-based options as market demand and technology develop.

Tansox's sustainability strategy is built on four pillars: material innovation (eco film alternatives across all product lines), responsible sourcing (FSC kraft, verified supply chains), manufacturing efficiency (waste and energy reduction at Quanzhou), and client partnership (helping brands document and achieve their sustainable packaging targets). All Tansox packaging is BPA-free as standard, with PFAS-free, recyclable, biodegradable, compostable and PCR content options available.
Tansox operates ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 certified management systems, issued by EACC — the ISO 9001 certificate is valid to 2029 and the ISO 14001 certificate to 2028.
