When people think of sustainable transport packaging, they often think of cost, weight, or materials. At Eltete TPM, we think about all of those — and more. For over 50 years, we’ve been helping companies around the world move their products more efficiently and sustainably. But there’s more to us than meets the eye.
Here are seven things that make Eltete TPM different — and why so many global supply chains trust us.
📜 It all started with paper
Eltete’s story began in Finland in the 1970s, with one clear goal: to reduce the use of wood in packaging by replacing it with strong, recyclable carton-based alternatives. What started as a local initiative has grown into a global operation — but our mission hasn’t changed. Sustainability has always been part of our DNA.
🌏 We’re global — and proudly local
With production units in Finland, Poland, China, Malaysia, and Vietnam, and trusted partners across Europe, the Americas, and beyond, we serve customers around the world — always from the closest location possible.
Local production means shorter delivery times, reduced transport emissions, and better support for your operations.
📐 Our products are customizable, made to protect
One-size-fits-all? Not here. Whether you’re shipping electronics, food, machinery, or anything in between, we have a solution to fit. From edgeboards and carton pallets to complete export boxes, our components are modular and tailored to your load and transport mode. And with our IRPBA machines, you can even produce Eltete TPM components in-house — reducing freight costs and carbon footprint even further.
💪🏽 High strength, low emissions
When it comes to Eltete TPM cardboard/carton pallets and packaging solutions, don’t mistake “carton” for fragile. Our paper packaging materials are engineered to handle demanding logistics conditions. They protect your products during transport — and protect your bottom line by reducing damage, replacements, and excess freight. Better performance, fewer emissions.
🚀 We move fast!
Big decisions don’t get lost in layers of management. As a family-owned business — and thanks to our production sites and global partner network — we stay close to our customers and act quickly when needed.
Whether it’s support, customization, or scaling up, we’re here to move with you — not behind you.
And the results speak for themselves:
📈🔗 In Q1 2025, Eltete TPM achieved its best first-quarter performance in over a decade.
This growth reflects both the strength of our global team and the rising demand for sustainable, high-performing packaging solutions.
♻️ Sustainability is more than a slogan
We don’t just talk about reducing waste — we design for it. All our packaging solutions are 100% recyclable. As an FSC-certified company, we’re committed to responsible sourcing and circular design. Our motto — Reduce. Replace. Recycle. — is something we apply every day.
🏆 Recognized for innovation
We’re proud that our work has been recognized with international awards, including most recent:
🏆 WorldStar 2025 Winner – Carton Pallet
This solution was honored not only for its sustainable design, but also for how it improves logistics efficiency. It’s proof that smart packaging can be both eco-friendly and cost-effective.
There’s more behind the box
At Eltete TPM, we believe sustainable transport packaging should do more than protect your shipment during handling, loading, transit, and unloading. It should support your supply chain, reduce your environmental footprint, and align with your sustainability goals — without compromising performance, while bringing significant economic savings to your bottom line.
If that’s what you’re looking for, we’re ready to help.
