CVP Solutions win 2021 Green Supply Chain Partner Award

Every year, Inbound Logistics selects 75 Green Supply Chain Partners that are dedicated to developing and implementing best practices that leave a positive footprint on the world. Green Supply Chain Partner must lead the way in sustainability and green logistics initiatives and is evaluated on four benchmarks: measurable green results, sustainability innovation, continuous improvement, and industry recognition. These companies go above and beyond to ensure their global supply chains are sustainable, and that their operations are socially and environmentally friendly.

Sparck Technologies was awarded this honor due to its CVP Automated Packaging Solutions, the CVP Impack and CVP Everest. These state-of-the-art auto-packing systems create fit-to-size boxes for each single- or multi-item order of either soft or hard goods while eliminating or reducing void-fill. For an even greener initiative, the CVP Everest uses a patented gluing system to affix a custom-fit lid. This is considered a reuse/recycling program as the corrugate can be 100% recycled and the boxes can be reused for returns or other items. Due to the right-sized boxes created from these solutions, shippers use an average of 30% less corrugate and experience a significant reduction in material costs. This also creates an average of 50% reduction in shipping volume, which allows more orders to fit onto delivery trucks, reducing greenhouse gas emissions with fewer trucks needed.

“We are excited to be named one of Inbound Logistics’ Green Supply Chain Partners for 2021,” said Sean Webb, Director of Automated Packaging Solutions, N.A. at Sparck Technologies. “We are eager to address a rapidly increasing global market demand for sustainable automated packaging solutions. With more and more customers demanding retailers be more eco-friendly, the CVP Automated Packaging Solutions are perfect for shippers and customers who are looking for a greener delivery. The CVP Impack and CVP Everest allow shippers to boost their sustainability efforts by lowering corrugate usage, reducing or eliminating void fill usage, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and implementing reuse/recycling programs.”
