How Pratt Can Help You
INNOVATION:
• Lightweight Paper: Pratt’s newest paper

combination of different industry
technologies to manufacture lightweight
liners and mediums. We meet customer
demand for less packaging and greater
environmental responsibility by
specializing in liners and mediums that are 23 lbs and lighter.

solutions. We specialize in wax alternatives while still providing wax
cascaded boxes, if the need arises. Our focus is on reducing total cost of
ownership (TCO) for our customers and minimizing the number of non-
recyclable waxed boxes in our nation’s waste stream.
Harvesting the Urban Forest to
Manufacture High Performance Packaging

1,000,000 tons of waste paper and
corrugated boxes every year. Our 100%

the need for trees. The paper we recycle

is produced – a gas 21 times more harmful
to the environment than carbon dioxide.

manufacturing process. Moreover,
our Staten Island mill uses New York’s
waterways to barge half of its annual
360,000 tons of collected waste paper to
the site – thereby reducing atmospheric
and noise pollution, street congestion
and wear and tear on the city’s already
over-used road system.
