SupplyOne, Inc., the largest independent supplier of corrugated and other value-added packaging products, equipment, and services in North America, just announced it has been honored with the Pregis Inspyre and Preserve awards. These awards highlight SupplyOne’s commitment to sustainability and dedicated efforts to improve lives worldwide.

Pregis’s Inspyre Award honors customers who are changing lives through their commitments to a better world. As a member of the ‘1% for the Planet’ initiative, 1% of all Pregis’s Inspyre sales go directly to Uzima, a non-profit that provides life-changing water filters to communities in need.

SupplyOne’s Packaging Specialists objectively assess each unique customer’s application and, drawing from the broadest range of packaging products available, provide unbiased guidance on the optimal packaging solution to address their objectives. Through this process and subsequent recommendation of Pregis’ Inspyre packaging, SupplyOne directly contributes to global clean water access. Through the Inspyre initiative, SupplyOne has made a significant difference, impacting over 6,900 lives.

It’s a stark reality that one in nine people worldwide experiences water insecurity. This often leads to waterborne illnesses and contributes to a cyclical trap of poverty. Each Uzima filter can provide clean water to a family of 6-10 people, reducing medical expenses, improving school attendance, and empowering better lives.

The Pregis Preserve Award recognizes efforts to promote sustainable Easypack paper solutions. Pregis’s Easypack paper is 100% recycled, 100% recyclable, and 100% biodegradable. This chain of custody-certified product has tangible benefits for the world’s forests. Each ton of Easypack paper used equates to 17 trees saved from harvest.

Healthy forests are vital in reducing carbon dioxide levels, providing cleaner air and water, and offering sanctuary for vulnerable species. By helping manufacturers and processors implement Easypack paper solutions, SupplyOne has helped save over 13,000 trees from harvest, further demonstrating its commitment to a greener planet.

These accolades underscore SupplyOne’s dedication to sustainability and social responsibility. We are grateful to Pregis for the recognition and will continue to work towards positively impacting our shared environment.
