Savannah Bee, a producer of honey and body care products located near Savannah, GA, was seeking more efficient and sustainable packaging solutions due to growth at their manufacturing facility. They were using loosefill chips that took up space and had issues keeping heavy glass containers secure during shipping. Savannah Bee switched to Geami WrapPak protective paper packaging which reduced their storage space needs by 15 square meters, lowered packaging time to reduce labor costs, and decreased damage rates compared to loosefill chips. The paper packaging also aligned with their sustainability philosophy.

1. SAVANNAH BEE
Savannah Bee operates a 40,000 square foot facility in
Wilmington Island, a bridge’s distance from Savannah, GA.
Savannah Bee offers two distinct lines of world-class honeys
and a luxury body care line with hive-inspired ingredients.
CUSTOMER NEEDS
• Due to continued growth at this busy manufacturing facility, packaging
efficiencies became a priority.
• Products were packed using loosefill chips. This method created both space and
sustainability issues.
• Many Savannah Bee products are supplied in glass containers and it was difficult
to keep the loosefill chips below heavy items as they shift in during shipment.

2. OUR SOLUTIONS
Savannah Bee turned to Geami WrapPak for their protective paper
packaging. The manufacturing facility, retail stores and e-commerce
all ship products wrapped in Geami WrapPak.
• Savannah Bee embraces sustainability initiatives as their
products are either organic or contain natural ingredients.
• Geami WrapPak is simple to learn how to use, wraps easily, and
protects their product well during shipment.
BUSINESS RESULTS
• Storage space was reduced 15m2
to 1m2
since the Geami WrapPak
paper is delivered in stackable pallets.
• The time taken to pack each box was reduced lowering labour costs.
• Damage rates were lowered when compared to loosefill chips.
• A paper packaging solution supported the company’s sustainability
philosophy.
“Geami WrapPak protects our products
securely in boxes. Anything that can
keep two bottles intact when shipped
is hugely important.”
