Manufacturing

We use your existing shrink data (or industry averages) to illustrate the savings potential of reducing damage in your supply chain with stronger, more protective RPCs.

End of Life

For reusable packaging, the "end of life" stage typically involves responsible recycling or responsible disposal at the end of the product's extended lifespan. For corrugated, wooden pallets and Styrofoam packaging, it involves recycling (if possible) and the water and energy usage for the same.
