Southern Carton Joins Amazon Packaging Support Supplier Network Nashville, Tennessee based Southern Carton Company, a manufacturer of packaging materials and solutions, an- nounced that it is now a certified member of the Amazon Packaging Support and Supplier (APASS) network. “As a member of the APASS network, we will be able to help companies who sell through Amazon, design and develop e-commerce packaging that will reduce costs, minimize chargebacks and optimize their customers’ ex- perience,” said Scott Fray, Vice President of Sales. “Our team is focused on helping customers navigate the world of e-commerce packaging, including the Amazon channel, and our APASS membership reaffirms our commitment to their ongoing success.” Amazon launched the APASS program in 2018 to sup- port vendors, sellers, and manufacturers in certifying their products as Prep-Free Packaging (PFP), Ships-in-Own Container (SIOC) and Frustration-Free Packaging (FFP). These certification guidelines for packaging help reduce packing times, packaging waste, risk of damage, and diffi- cult unboxing experiences. “For more than 40 years, Southern Carton has evolved to meet customer demand at every stage of the supply chain by providing expert design and engineered busi- ness solutions,” said Connor Kennedy, third-generation

Manager at Southern Carton. “By aligning our approach with Amazon’s guidelines, we become a partner in the solutions that will advance and sustain our customers for years to come.” Fosber America, DPi Inc. Collaborate On Inline Digital Print Solution Bryan Bell, President of DPi Incorporated and Jeff Pallini, President of Fosber America, Inc. have announced their new collaboration. Fosber America manufacturers com- plete corrugators for the North American market and DPi offers inline digital printing solutions for corrugator lines. Fosber and DPi have been working together at a Mid- western box plant to perfect the inline, high-speed digital print solution. This led to a long-term distribution agree- ment, which now combines the DPi printing expertise with the Fosber corrugator and services experience. “We are very excited about working with DPi,” said Pal- lini. “The first time we met Bryan Bell and Stuart Brownell we hit it off. They have a history of successful inline digital printing. Their know-how in combination with our under- standing of the corrugator and ability to install and service the equipment long-term is a winning combination.” “We are very excited to team up with Fosber and bring digital printing to their corrugator,” said Bell. “We worked together very well to fine-tune the application.”
