Pregis, a leading global manufacturer of protective packaging, mailing and bagging, and flexible packaging solutions, has made significant investments in new production lines at its Bethel, Pennsylvania, and Reno, Nevada facilities to increase capacity for its Pregis EverTec™ Mailer portfolio, with a particular focus on the EverTec Non-Cushioned Mailer. This investment underscores the company's commitment to meeting the growing needs of ecommerce fulfillment and retail industries.
"This expansion results from strategic planning and determined readiness to meet surging ecommerce and retail demands for fiber-based, curbside recyclable mailers. Upgrading our existing facilities with new production lines means widening our footprint and making it easier to provide our most popular mailing solutions to customers nationwide," explains Stephan Carter, president of Pregis Mailing Solutions. "With the latest enhancements in production capabilities, Pregis continues to lead the way in delivering reliable and efficient packaging solutions to meet the evolving demands of the market."
The Pregis Mailing Solutions portfolio is highly regarded in the ecommerce packaging segment due to its dedication to producing reliably durable, sustainable solutions. EverTec Mailers are curbside recyclable and are now constructed with paper bearing the Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI) ‘Certified Sourced’ designation signaling responsible sourcing practices. The addition of the new production lines in the East and West ensures ecommerce fulfillment centers across the country will have access to these mailers to provide top-tier customer experiences. In addition to the expanded production footprint, these lines will enable further innovation to meet retail needs, including the addition of gussets, wickets, and ecommerce mailer configurations.
Pregis has been expanding its Mailing Solutions production capabilities, including the addition of full-color digital printing for the EverTec Mailer line since 2020. Production started in May 2021 at the Bethel facility, followed by Reno in March 2022. These facilities, along with those in Arlington, McDonough, and Elk Grove Village, are geographically positioned throughout North America to provide national coverage for EverTec Mailers.
Pregis continuously develops packaging solutions with the customer in mind, offering options that deliver a high-impact brand experience, provide superior product protection, and help reduce shipping costs.
