That\u2019s why ORBIS Corporation offers a comprehensive recycling program for the efficient recovery of your obsolete and surplus packaging.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With decades of product design experience, ORBIS is continuously enhancing product features to bring value to users. We listen to customers, understand their applications, and use this insight to design the best-looking, best-performing products in the industry. This includes our FliPak\u00ae line of containers that can help you optimize freight efficiency in all types of distribution applications.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reusable alternatives to corrugated shipping boxes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The FliPak containers are designed to be reusable alternatives to corrugated shipping boxes and accommodate all types of products in many work-in-process, picking, storage, and distribution applications in today\u2019s supply chains.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main features of the FliPak line include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Interlocking lids, attached with heavy reinforced hinges, to cover and prevent product loss.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Coating within the perimeters to protect against material breakage and cracking.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Closed pocket hand grips for quick, convenient grasping and releasing.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Built to stack when filled and nest when empty to increase space on manufacturing floors, in warehouses, and in standard trucks.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Long service life and excellent return on investment (ROI)<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The superior design of these reusable containers, along with their durable construction, help ensure a long service life, providing excellent return on investment (ROI) and reduced distribution cost per trip when compared to corrugated boxes.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All FliPaks are built to optimize trailer space during return trips, in turn optimizing outbound trucks with more containers per 53\u2019 trailer than competitive industry totes. The inside product clearance allows more product per container while a shorter nest stop, and narrow gull wingspan means more empty containers can be stacked in a standard 53\u2019 trailer for inbound trips. And FliPak containers can be used more than 250 times for a cost-savings addition to any logistics operation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At end of life, we will take back any product, regardless of hinge type, when it\u2019s time to recycle them at the end of their service life. Then, you can use the credit towards the purchase of a new product with the features you want for your changing needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbiscorporation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/FP183_Top_Down_3Q_GREY.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3439\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Multiple product options to meet your distribution application needs <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With more than 20 footprints to choose from in solid, drain hole, or plus-grid bottom styles, ORBIS offers multiple FliPak product options to meet your distribution application needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FliPak containers are injection-molded and feature a quick-release label area on an attached hinged cover and ends for easy reading and quick label exchange.
