ICPF To Launch New Career Portal Platform
Transpak Acquires Reid Packaging Of Peachtree Corners, Georgia San Jose, California based Transpak, a provider of custom packaging, crating, logistics, and design services, has ac- quired Peachtree Corners, Georgia based Reid Packaging, according to media reports. Reid Packaging has operated in the metro Atlanta region since 1982, providing custom packaging for mil- itary, aerospace, and high-value industries. Under the leadership of Ward Phillips, the company became one of the largest packaging companies in the region with a 60,000-square-foot facility. Transpak says it shares Reid Packaging’s commitment to craftsmanship, care and the people behind the work. “This partnership isn’t just about expansion; it’s about carrying forward the legacy of family businesses built on trust, hard work, and dedication to customers,” the com- pany said. Tomas Molet, Transpak’s Executive Vice President of East and Midwest Operations, said that Reid Packaging’s prime location in Peachtree Corners will allow them to serve customers throughout the southeast, including di- rect routes to the Carolinas and beyond. It also strength- ens their ability to meet the needs of existing clients in the semiconductor and renewable energy sectors. Molet said they retained all Reid Packaging employees.
The International Corrugated Packaging Foundation (ICPF) announced important changes to its Career Portal. After careful evaluation and conversations with current ca- reer portal users, ICPF has decided to transition to a new platform for advertising open industry positions that can be embedded directly onto ICPF’s website. The current career portal will be discontinued on No- vember 15. In its place will be a new digital tool called So- ciableKIT, which will integrate with third-party platforms like LinkedIn and Indeed, eliminating the need to post jobs separately on www.careersincorrugated.com . Transitioning to this new feature will provide an im- proved user experience with an intuitive interface that keeps users on ICPF’s newly designed website and bet- ter integration with social media and other communication channels. With a streamlined application flow, this new ap- proach will also allow job seekers to apply directly through LinkedIn or a company’s internal ATS/API, simplifying the application process. ICPF President Caitlin Salaverria said they believe the transition will better support industry recruitment efforts, increase visibility for open positions in the corrugated packaging industry, and will create a smoother application process for students and job seekers.
