We utilize state-of-the-art testing equipment, including:
- Drop
- Shock/Fragility
- Vibration
- Compression
- Burst
- Edge crush
- Environmental recorder
Material-Neutral Solutions
Our engineering centers bring true in-house material-neutral solutions, which means we choose the best ones to deliver the greatest consumer and customer benefits. We are not obligated to use a particular material and take full advantage of all options available.
Sustainability
Our engineering experts create solutions with maximum impact on consumers and minimum impact on the environment. We promote sustainability through our quest to reduce, recycle and reuse. Our packaging designs are engineered to provide more protection and support with less material. We use materials from sustainable sources and eliminate waste. We minimize handling and streamline steps in the supply chain to reduce our carbon footprint.
