Entries open for annual reusable packaging award
The Reusable Packaging Association (RPA) has opened the call for entries for the 10th annual Excellence in Reusable Packaging Award.
This award recognizes primary (end) user companies and organizations that have developed and implemented measurable and innovative reusable transport packaging solutions in their supply chains. The application form is available on the RPA website. Submissions are due by June 1.
New this year is a second-award category for business-to-consumer reusable transport packaging for moving products from retail distribution centers or stores to consumers in-store pickup, direct-to-home delivery or e-commerce applications. The award recognizes emerging reusable transport packaging innovation in a growing market that would benefit from a reuse system. The award involves secondary or tertiary packaging types for product handling and distribution to consumers, not primary packaging in which a consumer engages with each use of the product. The new award joins the longstanding award category for demonstration of reusable packaging excellence in business-to-business supply chain applications.
