In this world, right now, our normal has changed considerably. There is incredible gravity felt all over the world due to the impact of COVID-19. As much as many are under distress - there is a lot of good coming out of this. We as humans can be extraordinary. We know this as we've witnessed humans rise to the occasion to help one another with other disasters. Two examples that come to mind are Hurricane Katrina and 9/11. We truly rally together, to protect one another to try and comfort and assist one another. It makes one proud when the industry you work in is part of the rally. Organizations are not only voluntarily a part of it but returnable packaging also supports the essential businesses that are hard at work, as we speak. Returnable packaging is a large part of moving products through the supply chain. An example is a news reporter, from New York City, was standing in…

As we move through 2020, let's take a look at what is happening in the returnable/reusable/sustainable packaging world. Here, we are going to talk about a few trends and how Amatech stays ahead of the curve. 

When a client reaches out to their project managers, they have a product they need to protect. It is quite obviously our job to ensure that this happens - effectively and efficiently. In designing a returnable package for a customer, there are many factors that come into play. Our project managers need to take things like the weight of the part, whether the part has class A surfaces, how long the returnable packaging program is expected to be in place, and what the application might be. When we talk about applications, we are referring to how the returnable packaging will be utilized. For example, will it be used in a WIP (work in process) application or will the pack be in transit packed on a truck for shipment perhaps.  All of the above are just a few of the many things our project managers take into consideration prior to getting a quote prepared for review.
