Shipping Materials

Recycled Content Our warehouses and mills use recycled content corrugate and poly liners for shipping. (up to 35% recycled content) Recycling Programs We take part in recycling programs that purchase and re-use our corrugate, poly liners, and string waste. Extended Box Life 1888 Mills gives extended life to our corrugate boxes by re-using them when shipping between our internal mills and warehouses. Pallet Sharing Program 1888 Participates in a pallet-sharing programwith CHEP. We purchase their pallets and report where we sent them. CHEP recovers those pallets for re-use. Bale Packs When possible, we use compressed bale packs instead of corrugate to increase container loads by up to 70%.
