PackQueen has been featured in leading Australian media, recognised with industry awards, and proudly supported charities and community organisations across Australia. Here's a snapshot of our journey.
PackQueen has been recognised by some of Australia's most prestigious business awards programs for our commitment to manufacturing excellence, sustainability, and innovation.
We are thrilled to have been named a State Finalist in the Telstra Best of Business Awards 2024 for Promoting Sustainability in Victoria. This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and driving sustainable practices across the Australian packaging industry. Through our eco-friendly packaging range — including recyclable materials, FSC-certified paperboard, and compostable options — we've helped thousands of businesses reduce their environmental footprint without compromising on quality or functionality.
For the second consecutive year, PackQueen was named a State Finalist in the Telstra Best of Business Awards for Promoting Sustainability. This back-to-back recognition is a testament to our sustained commitment to eco-friendly packaging solutions and our efforts to lead the way in reducing the environmental impact of the Australian packaging industry.
