Can Your Sustainable Package Survive the Real World?

Remove, reduce, reuse, renew, and recycle. To make a more sustainable package, you may be considering everything. But improving a package’s sustainability at the expense of survivability misses the mark. A package that fails in the transit environment is simply not sustainable. Does your sustainable package have what it takes to survive?

ISTA Certification Validates Your Sustainability Efforts.

Creating a sustainable package is science, not guesswork. Evaluating whether efforts to improve the package have compromised its protective potential is critical. After all, you may be looking for ways to use less packaging…but how much less is too little? ISTA is helping members confidently identify the best shipping solution with testing procedures that give confidence in a sustainable package's ability to survive the hazards proven to exist in the transport environment. The ISTA Package Certification process strengthens a member's position in potential damage disputes which may arise within the products' transport and distribution channels. ISTA certification is visible proof that your product is packaged to survive the real world.
