Automotive motor oils, fluids, and chemicals are typically filled into rigid plastic containers. But an “in-the-box” alternative—bag-in-box (BIB) in this instance—is providing manufacturers and quick-lube operators with an option that presents marketing opportunities, reduced costs, and less environmental impact than individual quart bottles as a single 6-gal BIB pack replaces 24 bottles.

The BIB packaging from Scholle Packaging earned a Gold award for Scholle and Shell Global Lubricants.

Houston-based Shell Lubricants refers to the motor oil packaging as the Ecobox™ system, noting that it has won three awards for the lubricant manufacturer and Scholle Packaging. The awards include the 3M Sustainability Award from 3M, the DuPont Award for Packaging Innovation for Excellence in Sustainability, and the Institute of Packaging Professionals’ Ameristar Award in the newly created automotive category.
