Adoption rates of reusable packaging in the automotive industry has been significant, however asset accountability and control remain prominent issues. CHEP has won awards for our innovative container designs, and we’ve proven that well-designed reusable packaging can add considerable value to supply chain management, lean manufacturing, and lean material flow initiatives.

The grocery industry has long recognized the importance of efficient product handling in the movement of goods from manufacturer to consumer. Pooled pallets, Reusable Plastic Containers (RPCs), and Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) from CHEP provide benefits such as reduced product damage and improved safety. With the CHEP pooling solution, we take the hassle out of equipment handling and allow you to focus on what you do best.

Many ingredients have traditionally been transported in 55-gallon (205-litre) non-pooled drums, and suppliers have long desired to improve total supply chain costs with a more effective container management system. Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are an efficient way to ship hundreds of dry and liquid ingredients to production facilities. Other types of packaging and raw materials, such as paper, wood, glass, plastic, metal enjoy similar benefits from joining the CHEP pallet pooling solution.

Two CHEP products stand out in the Produce industry – Reusable Plastic Containers (RPCs) and pallets. RPCs, which provide a “one touch” solution to the problem of transporting fresh fruit and vegetables from the farm to the store, give your company an advantage by reducing product damage, reducing labor at retail stores, extending shelf life, and removing corrugate from the waste stream.

CHEP pallet and container pooling services support the Home Improvement / DIY industry’s continued focus on improved packaged goods transport, reduced product damage, faster load and unload times, enhanced productivity and improved efficiencies in safety and handling.

The costs of changing environmental regulation, margin pressures, and special material handling requirements are issues in the petroleum refining and chemicals industries. CHEP Catalyst & Chemical Containers (CCCs) are a safe and efficient solution to transporting spent catalysts, and are an environmentally superior packaging alternative to bags or drums.
