Insight into the Paulmann warehouse

You’re wondering what is meant by visual defects on the packaging? In this picture, you get a glimpse into our factory second warehouse. If you look closely, you can see minor creases or scratches on the original packaging. But don’t worry – the products are thoroughly checked by our trained staff and only after successful quality control, do they receive the “factory second” label.

Sustainability as a core corporate value at Paulmann

Our Factory second stock comprises products that have been set aside due to minor cosmetic flaws in the packaging, but which are technically in perfect working order. 

We check these items carefully and re-offer them at an attractive discounted price. In this way, we give goods that have already been produced a second chance and can help to minimise waste. ​

This approach is in line with our environmental policy and our corporate values. Sustainability is a key part of how we operate – for example, through the use of green electricity, the conscious use of energy, water, materials and space, and the continuous improvement of our packaging and dispatch processes. ​ By marketing our Factory second goods, we support the concept of the circular economy through reuse rather than disposal. This creates tangible added value for customers and contributes to a more resource-conscious approach to products. ​
