GREENCOAT® wax-replacement boxes were developed entirely by Interstate Container Cambridge team and successfully trialed with Mountaire Farms, a Delaware-based poultry processing company. GREENCOAT® is a compostable, 100% recyclable and repulpable packaging solution.
The award-winning corrugated box tackles the environmental problems of traditional waxed boxes, while offering the same strength and sustainability. Global Green USA, a non-profit organization committed to making positive changes to foster global climate improvement, awarded GREENCOAT® the 1st Pioneer Award at the 11th Annual Sustainable Design Awards.
The eco-friendly corrugated box is also used for transporting fresh produce, meat, seafood, and floral products. GREENCOAT® is suitable for products that require durable moisture-resistant corrugated packaging that meet sustainability goals.
