You structure your specification once; PAXLY pre-selects suitable manufacturers from its network and collects comparable quotes. You benchmark them against a recognized market index and close the contract audit-proof — instead of reconciling spreadsheets for weeks.

No. It is not about replacing trusted partners, but about clarity: you can compare packaging suppliers, benchmark quotes against the market price and build a second source where needed — without terminating existing relationships. Good suppliers withstand a fair comparison, and the transparency often even strengthens the partnership.

The market index is based on recognized industry sources such as EUWID and Destatis. This lets you validate quotes against the actual market price for corrugated board, folding cartons and film — including quarterly trends and audit-ready evidence.

For producers, PAXLY is completely free. Manufacturers set up their machine and product-data profile once and are automatically listed on matching tenders — qualified inquiries without cold outreach.

The EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR) applies from 12 August 2026. Buyers must demonstrate the recyclability and recycled-content shares of their packaging, among other things. PAXLY consolidates the required data and supports reporting directly in the platform.

PAXLY is built for mid-market packaging buyers who want to cut costs and digitalize processes, and for packaging manufacturers looking to win new customers. Buyers achieve a median 23.4% savings with 78 hours saved per tender.
