Corrugated cardboard is a major driver of the U.S. economy, and part of the reason for that is its sustainability. It is the most renewable packaging material that is available to us, and it is a cost-effective way to ship and package your goods.

How did the Regular Slotted Container (RSC) become so ubiquitous? Here are four reasons why.

I was recently asked how many boxes can we get out of a tree by my sister-in-law. I didn’t really have a good answer for that, and neither did Google, so I thought I would look into this a little more myself.

Hanko Kiessner, our co-founder, started Utah's Leaders for Clean Air™, a non-profit aimed at decreasing our carbon footprint through electric vehicles.

Which types of corrugated cardboard would be best for a shipping company that reuses their boxes until they become damaged?

Let’s be real for a moment here—is there anything more bland than a brown cardboard box? You might feel some excitement when you see one on your doorstep, but that’s often because you have no idea what’s inside it. It could be socks from a friend, a cheap marketing gimmick from a bank or car dealership, or a postal service error. We live in a world where a $1,000 dress and a $2 pair of used flip flops are delivered in the same boxes.

Manufacturers these days live in a world where their customer wants more for less, and they want it fast. They often have to make small or custom runs of products in a short amount of time. This is the cost of doing business today, but it can take a heavy toll on a manufacturer's packaging costs.

Void filler—we're not really fans of it. But we recognize that even the most sustainable packaging systems need at least a little bit of it. Sometimes we ship oddly-shaped objects that won't fit in a rectangular box. Sometimes we put multiple items in a box, inevitably leaving some empty space. Regardless, the goal should always be to use the smallest amount possible.
