Designed and developed at the CRP bespoke Heavy Duty manufacturing plant at Corby, Northamptonshire, the recyclable pallet container is one of many demand-led solutions for the industry that are produced throughout the business on a regular basis.
The recent Starpack awards are testament to the innovation and capabilities present within the organisation, as the unit won CRP awards in both the Best Transit Pack and the Best Innovation to Reduce Waste categories.
The novel container is not only designed to be totally recyclable, but it also gives no compromise in its load bearing ability.
Capable of a stacked load in excess of 300kgs, the new bulk packaging container is adaptable for all kinds of pack weights and products.
The container is one of several styles that can be produced through the CRP 'Box King' machine without the need for costly tooling normally attributed to such innovative designs.
The versatility of design means it can be tailored to suit a myriad of products and required pack weights.
Matt Blockley, Manager of the CRP Heavy Duty Packaging Business, said: "With continued pressure throughout the supply chain with regard to cost, administration and regulations, we saw an opportunity to develop and market a product giving a viable alternative to conventional containers and traditional timber palletisation.
The pack is not only robust, but is also environmentally sound and 100 per cent recyclable in its construction.
Our forward-thinking design team and advanced manufacturing facilities allow such ideas to become reality".
