Ergovida Eliminates all EPS and EPE from its Packaging
Media Release - March 2, 2026
Ergovida, a leading brand under Canohm, is proud to announce a significant step in our commitment to environmental sustainability. Starting immediately from the next production, Ergovida will eliminate all EPS and EPE from the remaining large and heavy products that use these harmful materials. This initiative underscores our dedication to reducing waste and protecting the Australian environment.
As proud signatories to the Australian Packaging Covenant, Canohm is committed to continuous improvement in our packaging design to reduce our environmental impact. The shift to cardboard, paper and pulp-based product protection, ahead of legislative requirements, underscores our commitment to adopt more sustainable practices across all facets of our operations.
"At Canohm, we recognise the critical importance of sustainable packaging solutions," said Dave Coultas, General Manager. "Our move to eliminate EPS and EPE significantly strengthens our effort to minimise our environmental footprint."
Ergovida’s decision to transition to paper packaging is part of a broader strategy to innovate and adopt greener practices. We are continually exploring new ways to enhance our sustainability efforts and reduce our reliance on non-renewable resources.
Canohm's participation in the Australian Packaging Covenant reflects our broader commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable business practices. By collaborating with industry peers and stakeholders, we aim to drive meaningful change and inspire others to follow suit.
