Sustainability Through Innovation: The Total Package

In today’s packaging world many basic products, such as detergents, kitty litter, and bird seed, are sold in rigid plastic buckets. Buckets are bulky, hard to handle, and take up lots of space in the store and at home. They also consume a great deal of energy to produce and transport, are tough to get rid of, and create major problems for landfills.

Is there a better way? At Hood Packaging Corporation we think there is. Our The Total Package replaces the bothersome bucket with an attractive stand up pouch. Boasting outstanding graphics, five panel product display, an easy to use reclosable zipper, and an ergonomically designed carrying system that makes it much safer and easier to lift, The Total Package is a back and space saver. It is a planet saver, too. Production and transport of The Total Package uses far less energy than the bucket, and that results in significant improvements on greenhouse gas emissions over the competing package. The Total Package also conserves landfill space. It is a product that is a win-win, for producers, consumers, and the environment.
