RESPONSIBLE DESIGN, MANUFACTURING, DELIVERY

We constantly look for ways to “right size” our products, calculating and producing containers in the most effective size for transportation optimization and ensuring that they use no more material than absolutely necessary. That makes them lighter and more space-efficient, so we use less energy shipping them to our customers. The resulting benefit is that our customers also consume less energy when shipping products to their customers, reducing the carbon footprint that much more.

 

To see another way PCA saves energy and reduces carbon emissions, look at a map of our facilities. By maintaining a broad network of corrugated plants, strategically positioned to serve our customers locally, we minimize transportation cost and energy use.
