Boca Systems
Lemur Thermal Printers
Protecting a leading thermal printer product, and the brand, with molded fiber packaging.

The Lemur brand from Boca Systems is a popular thermal ticket/label printer for concert wristbands and event tickets. What Boca required was a sustainable packaging solution that form-fitted and safeguarded this sensitive electronics product during shipping.

“As a market leader for thermal printers, the Boca brand represents quality and dependability. And it starts with packaging that delivers our printers undamaged and ready for use.”

Previous Material

AB Chemical Foam

Problem

Foam packaging was not a good fit.

For Boca Systems, there were multiple reasons for replacing AB Chemical Foam packaging for their Lemur thermal printer brand. One key challenge was that this material formed inconsistently, so it didn’t properly “form-fit” and protect the irregular printer shapes. In addition, foam packaging was faced with mounting safety and compliance regulations due to concerns for the environment. A custom molded fiber packaging solution from EnviroPAK was a naturally smart choice in so many ways.

Solution

A positive packaging design takes shape.

As EnviroPAK began to engineer a custom packaging solution for the Boca Systems’ Lemur Thermal Printer, it was clearly a change for the better. The molded fiber custom packaging consistently fit the product shape for superior shipping protection. This good news was made even better since EnviroPAK offers a Tool for Life guarantee. So if Boca made slight printer modifications there was no packaging retooling charge. That’s thousands of dollars in savings over the life of the product. It was good for business and just as good for the environment since molded fiber is biodegradable and compostable. That’s why Boca Systems now uses EnviroPAK packaging with four of their printer models.
