Presentations from leading experts will share their experience in reusable packaging so that attendees gain a better understanding of sustainable use and recyclability of industrial packaging.<\/p>\n<p>Industrial Pack is proud to have the support of RIPA, (Reusable Industrial Packaging Association). RIPA represents over 90% of the industrial packaging reconditioning industry in North America. Their advice and counsel has played a key role in developing Industrial Pack Conference topics impacting sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>According to RIPA, \u201cit is estimated that total greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by approximately 2 billion pounds (900,000 tons) per year, based on the amount of reusable packaging already in use. RIPA believes this number could be significantly increased if industrial packaging users made concerted efforts to use greater numbers of reusable packagings.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5681\" style=\"width: 903px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5681\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5681\" src=\"http:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"893\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40.png 893w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-768x400.png 768w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-400x208.png 400w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-440x229.png 440w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-650x338.png 650w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-624x325.png 624w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Screen-Shot-2018-10-30-at-14.45.40-730x380.png 730w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5681\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Join the conversation on socials and post pictures using #IndustrialPack.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>New pledges of commitment to expand sustainability programs, spans across the industrial packaging sector from mid-sized to the largest organizations.
