Corrugated Alternative

Looking for a better secondary packaging solution?

Switch from corrugated cardboard to reusable plastic containers (RPCs)

RPCs modernize your supply chain and reduce frustration as a secondary packaging option to traditional wood and corrugated.

Traditional Packaging

Broken • Slow • Wasteful • Contaminated
 
✘ Damaged
Corrugated crushes and leaks. Nearly a third of wooden pallets require repairs. You pay for wasted product and pass-through repair costs.

✘ Wasteful
Even with repairs, wood pallets last ~3 years and corrugated boxes and combo bins are one-time use, preventing you from reaching sustainability goals.

✘ Costly
They can’t fold. They can’t nest. They take up space in trucks and plants, leading to extra transportation costs.
 
✘ Contaminated
Wood and corrugated absorb bacteria and water. Shavings and dust contaminates your shipment and dirty your facility, unlike Tosca's hygienic secondary packaging.
 
✘ Non-uniform
Each bin, box and pallet is unique with bulges, dents, nails and big variations in weight, causing disruptions that our secondary packaging resolves.

Tosca Secondary Packaging

Strong • High Performing • Clean • Sustainable
 
✓ Durable
High-pressure injection molding with light-but-strong polymer plastics means less damage to products and less labor spent on messes. 

✓ Sustainable
Every trip a Tosca secondary packaging product makes through the supply chain eliminates the need for waste from single use packaging.

✓ Cost-saving
Foldable and nestable secondary packaging options save space and money in transport. Light weight improves labor speed and safety.
 
✓ Hygienic
No wood shavings. No corrugated dust. Food-grade washable plastics resist moisture, fats, solvents, odor, insects and fungi.
 
✓ Standardized
Each crate, pallet and bin is engineered to maintain specific tolerances for use on automation equipment.
