Editor's Notes
- Your package is more than a container – and at its best, it can breathe new life into both your brand – and your ROI. From concept to design, production to distribution and consumption, Veritiv has the insights and experience to help you uncover all the ways your packaging can generate more efficiencies, more sales, and more profits.
- As the leading provider of packaging solutions, Veritiv brings you the know-how and innovative thinking of experienced packaging engineers, technicians, designers and sales professionals who share a common mission: to deliver solutions to help you improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and grow your business.
- We start by focusing on your food processing operations, and turning opportunities into innovative, cost-effective solutions to achieve these powerful advantages.
- We do this by bringing together the best ideas, materials, equipment, processes and designs to give you a higher return on investment from your packaging operations.
- We’re material-neutral, so we source a wide range of materials from best-in-class suppliers around the world, and carefully select what is best for your application. These materials are used to contain, protect, promote, and trace a wide variety of foods at the primary (product), secondary (case), and tertiary (pallet) levels.
- Local equipment specialists and service technicians will help you cost-effectively streamline production, and turn manual processes into mechanized ones. Flexible financing options are available to meet your budget needs.
- Our Facility Advisors are trained on all the Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Points (HACCP) enabling products we offer. This includes the product attributes and processes needed to comply with industry and government regulations, as well as best practices for achieving lean manufacturing and other business goals. The Lean philosophy is directly related to the 5S’s – a workplace methodology that thrives on efficiency and effectiveness. 1 – Sort 2 – Set in Order 3 – Shine 4 – Standardization 5 – Sustain We believe there’s an additional “S” for Safety.
- Our suppliers are leaders in their categories, offering a wide range of products that we carefully select based on your needs. This is a representative sample of our suppliers.
- We and our suppliers stay abreast of food safety regulations set by the FDA and other organizations, and will work with you to ensure compliance at every step in your packaging supply chain. These organizations include: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which is a U.S. federal agency that supervises and regulates food safety. The American Institute of Baking (AIB), which performs and facilitates food safety audits and runs safety education programs for bakers and other food processors. The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), which is a nonprofit organization that sets requirements for food safety through a benchmarking process. These requirements are designed to ultimately reduce the number of audits for businesses in the food industry. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), which establishes ratings and standards for electrical equipment – including that used for food processing. The organization tests and classifies products in categories like dust and water resistance.
- Using our proprietary Cost Analysis Tool (CAT) and Site Survey, we’ll evaluate each link in your supply chain and production line, and identify every possible method to reduce total operational costs – in materials, processes, designs and more – for increased packaging speed and throughput.
- Our comprehensive approach to packaging design and engineering involves a critical blend of structural and graphic design. We’ll bundle together solutions that decrease package weight and materials, reduce returns due to damages, advance your brand, and achieve other goals in multiple channel environments (e.g., grocery, club, fresh, dollar, online and more).
- With more than 170 strategic locations, we’re fast – and flexible. Our investments in the world’s most advanced tier-one software platforms for supply chain management give you reliability, speed, and accuracy. (For example, RedPrarie warehouse management, JDA demand planning, SmartSync inventory management, Roadnet Technologies route planning, and xata fleet tracking.) In addition, our eCommerce solutions help you increase order accuracy, boost staff productivity, and empower people with the information they need to take action – view catalogs, check prices and inventories, create “My Items” lists, track orders, and more.
- Over the years, we’ve done a little bit of everything. But all our Kitting, Assembly and Fulfillment projects have one thing in common – a focus on process, whereby the steps are aligned and products are grouped, packaged, and delivered.
- So each of the packaging services that Veritiv offers can create value across your entire supply chain – from suppliers to your processing operations, retail channels, and consumers.
- Veritiv’s team of sustainability experts will help you meet your sustainability goals and be conscientious stewards of natural resources across your entire supply chain. We’ll show you how to generate less waste by minimizing or eliminating materials, reduce trips and emissions by loading trucks to full capacity, and implement a recycling program. We’ll perform Life Cycle Assessments (LCA’s) to compare the environmental impacts of various packaging solutions. And rest assured that Veritiv participates in a number of programs designed to promote sustainability, including The Sustainable Packaging Coalition, SmartWay, and Energy Star, among others.
- The Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC) is an industry working group dedicated to a robust environmental vision for packaging. SPC is a project of GreenBlue, a nonprofit that equips businesses with the science and resources to make products more sustainable. We also work with the Forest Working Group of GreenBlue. PacNext’s vision is a world without packaging waste. They are part of the Packaging Consortium, which includes over 2100 members throughout the packaging supply chain with a mission to drive for progressive change in the packaging value chain through leadership, collaboration and knowledge sharing. Energy Star: a voluntary program that helps businesses save money and protect the climate through superior energy efficiency. Veritiv has 30 (or will have by end 2014) facilities third-party certified to this program. SmartWay Program: is a public-private initiative. Its purposed is to improve fuel efficiency and environmental performance. Partners of this program move more goods, more miles with lower emissions and less energy. The US Green Building Council (USGBC) is committed to a prosperous and sustainable future through cost-efficient and energy saving green buildings and works toward market transformation through its LEED green building program. Two Sides North America is a global initiative by companies in the Graphic Communications Industry, organized to promote sustainability of the industry and dispel common misconceptions, providing verifiable information on why ink on paper is attractive, practical and a sustainable communication medium. Trash Free Seas Alliance was launched by Ocean Conservancy. It unites industry, science and non-profit leaders who share a common goal for a healthy ocean free of trash. They identify cross-sector solutions to confront plastic pollution at a global scale.
- Veritiv offers products that help meet our clients’ sustainability goals. Our Sustainability Team can help guide Sales Professionals to products with environmental attributes that fit the client’s needs. Our team can assist in running the Green Gauge (a legacy Unisource tool) to assist Sales Professionals primarily in the Facility Supplies sector. The team is well versed in products that have forest certification.
