Recycled Packing Material
We Use 100% Recycled Peanuts.
We know many of our customers are concerned about the environment and the use of polystyrene "peanuts" used for packing. Here are some facts about the peanuts we use:
• The FLO-PAK™ brand of polystyrene peanuts we use are made from 100% recycled materials.
• Peanuts are made entirely without ozone-depleting CFC's or HCFC's.
• FLO-PAK™ peanuts can be used over and over again because they don't break up during shipment,
so please recycle them or resuse them in your return shipment to Markertek. Call 1-800-828-2214 (toll
free) for the nearest polystyrene recycling center.
• Our research has shown that polystyrene peanuts weigh about a fifth as much, per unit of volume,
as shredded newspaper. This means a huge fuel savings for vehicles delivering your products.
• Finally, our testing finds that polystyrene peanuts offer the best protection for the kinds of
products we sell. They are resilient, do not settle, don't attract pests and they aren't affected by
moisture. We want to be sure your package arrives in perfect condition.
