Reduce Damage and Waste
Product damage and returns drive costs across the supply chain. In fact, 73% of shoppers hesitate to purchase again after receiving a damaged order. From manufacturing through final delivery, damage leads to rework, scrap, spoilage, returns and replacements, impacting profitability, sustainability, operations and customer loyalty.
Pregis takes a consultative approach to uncover damage at the source and match the right solution to the application. Pregis PolyMask® Temporary Protective Films help manufacturers reduce surface damage, rework and production disruptions, while Pregis Performance Flexibles help food and consumer goods brands extend shelf life, reduce spoilage and protect consumer trust.
Navigate Sustainability and Compliance
Seven U.S. states have enacted packaging EPR legislation, with producer fees beginning in 2026. As regulations evolve, packaging teams must balance compliance, cost and performance. The Pregis 4R Material Strategy helps organizations evaluate reduction, renewable materials, recycled content and recyclability based on their unique application.
Solutions like Pregis EasyPack® Strata reduce material usage with structured pads that bridge void fill and light cushioning, while Pregis PolyPlank® Renew™ XL combines recycled contentrequired for demanding manufacturing environments.
There is no one-size-fits-all sustainability strategy. Navigate emerging regulations and uncover opportunities with Pregis sustainability experts at PACK EXPO with a compliance assessment.
Improve Operational Efficiency
Labor accounts for more than 40% of operating expenses for 3PL providers, making efficiency a critical driver of profitability. In ecommerce and fulfillment operations, manual touchpoints, bottlenecks, training demands, downtime and rework increase cost per pack and limit scalability.
The Pregis Sharp™ Lynx 18 automated bagger delivers up to four times the output of manualr high-volume fulfillment environments. For industrial and automotive applications, Pregis IntelliPack® SmartBagger™ powered by the Maxwell® Intelligent Interface simplifies training, s packaging and reduces operator guesswork.

Enhance Customer Experience
As consumers become more selective with every purchase, packaging plays a critical role in shaping brand perception. A damaged or disappointing delivery can erode trust, reduce loyalty and weaken long-term customer value.
Packaging enables brands to carry their values through final delivery. Solutions like Pregis AirSpeed® HC Inspyre™ combine premium product presentation with purpose, donating 1% of sales to the Uzima Clean Water Mission.
Visit the Pregis Inspyre™ area at PACK EXPO and help create a ripple of impact. For every booth engagement, Pregis will donate to Uzima to support access to clean water and help fight water insecurity.
Optimize Package Design
Major carriers have changed parcel pricing models, putting even more pressure on shipping costs. Oversized packages, dimensional weight, excess material and product damage can drive up costs across the supply chain and erode profitability.
Pregis EverTec® Mailers help optimize package size with ready-to-pack and automated formats that reduce excess packaging and dimensional weight.
