of pallets and other returnable packaging to
minimize waste.

– On large North American orders, disposable

packaging can be replaced with reusable
shipping blankets.

replacement.

Supplier Support

with our suppliers to reduce our collective impact on
the environment. We not only encourage our suppliers
to minimize their operations’ environmental impacts,
but require they assist us in decreasing our facilities’
negative environmental effects, as well.
