ters, located in Cork, Ireland, resides in a 100,000 square- foot facility.New facilities in the Czech Republic and Poland are also nearing completion. UGPG2 reports that it serves every industry, including ecommerce, automotive, military, medical, aerospace, food and beverage, electronics, industrial products and more, and it can assist with a wide range of packaging needs covering engineering, design, testing, fulfillment and real-time infor- mation processing Earlier this year, the company continued its expansion with the acquisition of LJM Packaging Co, Inc. based out of North Kingstown, Rhode Island, LJM manufactures, ware- houses and distributes protective packaging. Like all companies in the packaging space, which have been deemed essential businesses, UGPG2 has had to face dramatic changes in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. UGPG2 has stated that because of its focus on technology, machine and plant redundancy, and a vertically integrated supply chain, it is particularly well suited to operate effi- ciently through times of turmoil. Access To Resources The company’s vertically integrated supply chain ensures that the company’s manufacturing locations have steady access to required supplies and resources, while each lev- el of the supply chain offers multiple locations, enabling a customer’s packaging to be produced without interruption. Because UPGP2 owns its own fleet of trucks, a customer’s order never leaves UPGP2’s control from the time it is or- dered to when it is ultimately delivered. UGPG2 has also been able to utilize technology to smooth- ly transition a portion of its office personnel to a work from home environment.The company’s sales staff has received training associated with providing web demos through on- line video conferencing software. UGPG2 is fully equipped to produce foam, wood, molded fiber, Air-Paq and corrugated packaging.The company’s ex- pansive engineering team can design packaging products, which can in turn be tested in the company’s in-house ISTA and ISO17025 certified labs. The lab’s capabilities include environmental (temperature, humidity and pressure); vibra- tion (transportation simulation); and shock testing. UGPG2 is a member of Amazon’s Packaging Support and Supplier Network (APASS) and has been approved to pro- vide testing and design services to meet Amazon’s Frustra- tion-Free Packaging Requirement. In terms of corrugated packaging, the company offers RSC/shipping containers and inserts; HSC/folders and par- titions; custom die cuts; specialty gluing: auto lock bottom; bulk containers; and POP and retail-ready displays.The com- pany offers a number of print options, including flexograph- ic (up to 4-color), lithographic (high-end multi-color print), and digital (up to six colors plus white). It offers a number of specialty coatings, as well. Several of the company’s plants are fully integrated with corrugators and fully converting, while others are straight converting plants that include fully automated high-speed corrugated equipment.
