ITW Reddi-Pac
The Glass-Pac system, manufactured by ITW Reddi-Pac is already delivering measurable success as an alternative to wood crating systems, helping companies reduce their expenses and increase their efficiency. The Glass-Pac is formed by "framing" the glass using sections of laminated paperboard, pre-formed into U-shapes. The "frame" protects the product, while steel strapping is added to hold the "frame" in place and form the "Pac" creating a virtual solid block of glass. Additionally, wood lifting ears and feet are added to accommodate material handling of the Pac. Benefits achieved with the Glass-Pac system include: - Reduced packaging material costs (20 - 40%) - Reduced labor costs - Reduced damage - No hidden damage - Reduced freight costs - Reduced disposal costs - Improves safety - Improves customer satisfaction - Recyclable - Improves package appearance.
