Monoflo International

Sustainable Practice

More than moving products from manufacturing to retail at the lowest cost and improving delivery quality of the primary package, Monoflo believes that making smarter engineering choices that help the environment help your bottom line.

Through superior engineering, Monoflo reduces secondary packaging weight while maintaining performance and extending product life. Why does this matter?

Consider this: Monoflo reduced the secondary package weight for a client by more than 330 lbs per truckload. This resulted in a reduction of 7.2 million lbs. hauled each year. That is millions of pounds for one customer. What can we do to reduce your load?

It's easy to see that this is a tremendous reduction in the gallons necessary to haul. For each gallon of fuel consumed, 8.7kg of CO2 is emitted. Freight costs are minimized. Plus, a reduction in weight hauled reduces the emission of greenhouse gases, a reduction in carbon footprint, which is good for everyone.

In this case, we not only reduced the carbon footprint, we reduced the raw material used by 620,000 lbs. And Monoflo did it while creating a product with a superior life cycle. This translates to less material used and a reduced recycling burden, all at a lower cost in the first place.

Simple: with Monoflo, sustainability is good business. Good for the environment and your bottom line.
