PCR and UN Pails
Has anyone been successful using PCR in UN designated tight head pails? Normally, the regs preclude scrap and recycled content for UN packaging, but I hear an exemption can be had for muti-layer using PCR. Is this true?
Posted January 14, 2010Source reduced shippers in the face of UPS requirements
We, like all companies, have been focused on eliminating waste and excess packaging, especially our corrugated boxes. Recently, the big retailers (same ones pushing source reduction) have mandated that loads under roughly 250 lbs., must be shipped UPS. Non of our protective packaging was designed for this, much less ISTA 3A. How have other CPG companies met these diametrically opposed requirements?
