Packsize Partners With Paccurate To Advance Sustainability Efforts Salt Lake City, Utah based Packsize, a leader in sustain- able, right-sized, on-demand packaging, announced a strategic partnership with Paccurate to enhance the value for shippers by optimizing packaging efficiency, reducing costs, and minimizing environmental impact. In addition, Packsize introduces Easy-Close, an innova- tive feature that can be added to the X7 on-demand pack- aging machine to help simplify the returns process. Currently exclusive to North America, the partnership combines Paccurate’s cartonization technology with Pack- size’s on-demand packaging equipment. By optimizing cubic volume and minimizing waste and transportation costs, this collaboration marks a step forward in achieving cost-effective and eco-friendly packaging solutions. Paccurate users can utilize PacSimulate to identify the optimal moments for leveraging Packsize’s on-demand packaging technology, transforming the simulation model from a benchmarking tool into a achievable standard. Packsize users can now enhance their Warehouse Management System (WMS) cartonization with Paccurate's API, which generates nearly unlimited box sizes for right- sized packaging machines. “Partnering with Paccurate combines our strengths in right-sized, on-demand packaging technology with Pac-
curate’s advanced cartonization software, enabling us to further our mission to reduce supply chain emissions by reducing filler materials, wasted corrugated, and unnec- essary truckloads,” said Steve Larsen, Packsize Vice Pres- ident of Global Strategic Partnerships. “This collaboration is not just about technological in- tegration; it’s about redefining what’s possible in packag- ing efficiency and freight savings. By leveraging the best of both platforms, we’re opening up new possibilities for shippers to optimize their packaging processes and meet their sustainability goals in previously unimaginable ways.” Packsize has also unveiled Easy-Close, a feature de- signed to improve the customer returns process while supporting sustainability goals. Integrated into the X7 on-demand packaging machine, Easy-Close adds an ad- hesive strip for easy package reclosure, promoting reus- ability and minimizing waste. This feature is beneficial for sectors like e-commerce and apparel, which experience high return rates of up to 30 percent and strive for sustain- ability in their operations. “Designing Easy-Close was about tackling a significant issue in the e-commerce and apparel industries — making returns as hassle-free and as environmentally sustainable as possible for the customer,” said Jesse Nelson, X7 Prod- uct Manager at Packsize. “We aimed to create a packaging solution that reduces environmental impact by decreasing waste while improv- ing the customer experience.”
