About Us

A Shift in Thinking 

As leading companies continue to drive sustainability in their business, they scrutinize every point of their  supply chain, including the packaging used to move their product. Reusable plastic containers, pallets, dunnage and bulk systems improve the flow product all along the supply chain, to reduce costs, enhance profitability and add sustainability.

Helping Customers Drive Sustainability and Efficiency with Our Proven 5-Step Process 

ORBIS helps world-class customers move their product faster, safer and more cost-effectively. Using a proven approach, ORBIS experts analyze their customers’ systems, design a solution and execute a reusable packaging program for longer-term cost savings and sustainability. 

- Analyze: Carefully analyze the current system to determine a preliminary recommendation
- Prove: Demonstrate return on packaging investment
- Design: Fully plan and design the solution
- Implement: Seamless integration
- Evolve: Continuous improvement

By design, reusable plastic  totes,  pallets, dunnage and bulk systems are used over and over during the course of their service life. At the end of their life, they can be recovered, recycled and reprocessed into new packaging products...without entering the solid waste stream.

Sustainability is at our Core

Using life-cycle assessments to compare reusable and single-use packaging, we also help our customers reduce their overall environmental impact. ORBIS is a part of Menasha Corporation, one of the oldest family-owned manufacturers in the United States. As a steward of sustainability, ORBIS is committed to a better world for future generations. We track and measure our own resource utilization to continuously conserve natural resources and reduce waste. 

We are passionate about helping our customers drive their sustainability each and every day to improve their business.We use expertise, industry leading knowledge, innovation, superior products (containers, pallets and dunnage) and supply chain services (pooling, cleaning and logistics) to implement plastic reusable packaging systems.
