We’ve been talking lately about how WIC is branching out into the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) arena. This new venture has been a great challenge, but being able to use our particular skills and quickly pivot into offering a product that is desperately needed and can really make a difference is a challenge we have been more than happy to accept.

We’ve been introducing you to some different materials in our last few posts, and this time we wanted to talk about something you’ve probably seen, but you may not have thought much about. Corrugated plastic!

Some people might think of WIC as the box-people, or the folks who build all those custom crates, and while they wouldn’t be wrong, they might be overlooking some new developments we’d like to share with you. 

We’re obviously in the business of creating containers for a dizzying variety of products, so you’d be right to assume we think about recycling quite a bit.

In a previous post we started a conversation about foam, and when we start talking about foam, all sorts of new ideas just start bubbling up (sorry). This time, we thought we’d talk about the difference between open-cell polyurethane foam and closed-cell polyethylene foam.
