Ecommerce/Diecut Boxes

Ecommerce has been around a lot longer than you think! The world’s first mail order business was set up by Sir Pryce Pryce-Jones in 1861 in Newtown in Wales, UK. He sold woollen and fabric products worldwide using the latest technology of the day – the postal system and the railway!

Online shopping was invented in 1979 by Michael Aldrich in the UK. He hooked up a modified TV to a transaction-processing computer via a (landline!) telephone line. This “teleputer” technology made it possible to transmit payment data securely and became the foundation for modern ecommerce.

Cardboard was first invented in China in the 15th Century, but the paperboard we recognise these days as cardboard was invented in 1817 by an English company called M. Treverton & Son. But it wasn’t until 1879 that Robert Gair discovered how to mass produce cardboard boxes that they became a popular method of packaging.

In 2023, a total of 140.73 million parcels were delivered in Ireland. 30% came from foreign businesses to Irish addresses while 63% were from Irish businesses to Irish addresses. While some of these parcels may be padded envelopes or mailing bags, a lot of them are likely to be cardboard boxes!

At Box Depot, our pre-loved cardboard boxes are a fantastic eco-friendly choice! Our range of ecommerce boxes can make shipping your products, especially with An Post, very easy!
