Product and Packaging Design, Manufacturing, and Global Supply Chain.

Take a look at the comment section. This is a prime example of the current consumer sentiment around packaging expectations versus “sustainable” options. Consumers aren’t willing to sacrifice product visibility, for sake of “environmentally friendly” design changes.

Notice Regarding Change in Packaging Design Nendoroid and Nendoroid [Basic] products will soon feature redesigned packaging that significantly minimizes the use of plastic materials, reducing plastic consumption by up to 84% as compared to the original design. Details:…

The power of #local #sourcing agents and team members is critical in the world of global #supplychain. I am so grateful for my team members around the world that help us operate at a high level.


Great discussion happening now, led by industry leaders to discuss the future of #cannabis #vaporizer industry regulations

Interesting work by @medialab, using glass that approaches compressive strength of concrete blocks. Is this compressive strength due to the 3D printing process? Or, is this replicable at scale using more traditional glass molding manufacturing?

MIT researchers have developed tough, recyclable glass bricks that interlock like LEGO blocks to create a type of “reconfigurable masonry.” The bricks are made with a 3D printer from Media Lab spinoff Evenline, which uses molten glass as a feedstock. designboom.com/technology/mit…



AI integrations and workflows are only as productive as their downstream stakeholders are equipped to handle. In an industry comprised of several generations of technology, it’s no surprise that #AI, moving at the speed of light, may have some shortcomings.

We consistently build tools and resources for our customers, to ease their ordering process, for highly #custom products. But, when customers disregard these tools, orders are often submitted with incorrect #data and details. What tools are you using in this scenario?


On a call with my design team to discuss automating our customer approvals of design files. Without a formal PLM, we utilize #slack automations and back-end integrations to #airtable to manage approvals, daily workflows / progress. What are other #startups using?


Interesting #Sustainability news coming out of the EU. Healthcare and Cosmetic packaging pose unique regulatory risks, due to potential contamination of the recycling stream. #Chemical #recycling is a new technology that can change this.


This is great- the most “known” #recycling streams are Post Consumer, or PCR. In fact, there is so much recyclable material produced during the manufacturing process, which is already in the hands of processors and producers who can effectively recycle. Good article!

Paper is manufactured using mostly renewable, carbon-neutral bioenergy in a process that uses a lot of water, but consumes very little of it. And paper products are recycled more than any other material. Learn more #paperfacts: pulse.ly/oikqz1uw8z #paper #paperindustry

Even as a custom #packaging provider, I regularly refer customers to ULINE for standardized corrugate boxes. ULINE’s efficiency, inventory, and #supplychain excellence is such a useful resource!

Here's a bootstrapping hack we used in the early days of Cubby: Instead of investing in custom packaging, we used standard brown U-Line boxes. This saved us thousands and meant that our minimums were single digits instead of hundreds of boxes. To add a flair of custom…

A great reminder that a resilient #supplychain is more effective than a “strong” supply chains. Supply chains need to be flexible, and adapt. Not remain rigid and immovable.

I just had a great call with a long-time customer, that is noticing damage to our product, due to a piece of automation they purchased. We will quickly produce jigs to help solve this issue. Do you believe this should have been part of the automation supplier’s offering? #QC


Yes, agreed! Supply chains are only as strong as the teams, communications, and relationships within it.

Efficient supply chains don’t just happen they’re built by relentless teams who work smart every day. 👌
