We're Turning Brown to GREEN

Learn more about the following:

  • More than a Vision


  • Energy Independence


  • Completely GREEN Packaging


  • "Being eco-intelligent goes beyond having a GREEN product.

    It's a culture and an investment in practices and technologies both up and down stream of the product, and that's what makes us different and how we're enabling commerce and saving the planet one box at a time"

    - Tom Kandris, CEO

    Welcome to our Vision

    We're fortunate to be a part of a naturally green industry where nearly all of our products contain recycled and renewable resources as a major portion of the finished product. Moreover, corrugated itself is one of the United States most commonly recycled and reclaimed products.

    However...

    However having a GREEN finished product alone doesn't make us a GREEN company. Rather, our "Relevancy" and "Innovation" approach encompasses our Engineers, the resources we use, our operational practices and a forward thinking strategy for incorporating GREEN technology into our business.

    How we're turning Brown to Green

    It begins with our Engineers who design GREEN into our products (or as we refer to it, design waste out of the product). This is paramount as nearly 1/3 of California's landfills are comprised of packaging and paper products.

    The principle being, that aswe right-size packaging up-front by considering purpose, design and use, we'llthen eliminate waste which may otherwise reach a landfill.

    Next we source our materials from companies who prove they also have a focus on GREEN. We are Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) certified and we source our materials from suppliers who are likewise certified whichthrough independent auditsensure the virgin materials we use are derived from responsibly managed forests.



    How safe are your products as they moves from point to point?



    We also incorporate GREEN operations and maintenance into our manufacturing facilities where we prioritize the comfort and health of our employees and the protection of the environment.

    Through our proactive maintenance and workflow optimization programs we safeguard our employees and machinery. This also ensures we extend the life and productivity of the resources we have which inherently reduces waste and burden on the environment.
