The RPA’s 2nd State of the Reusable Packaging Industry Report will be informed by feedback from various industry stakeholders, including users, manufacturers, poolers, suppliers, and service providers who anonymously provide their insights.
WASHINGTON, DC (April 24, 2023) – The Reusable Packaging Association (RPA) has launched its 2023 State of the Reusable Packaging Industry Survey. The RPA seeks insights into the trends shaping the reusable transport packaging industry. The group seeks responses from a broad industry audience, including:
- Users of reusable packaging (Retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, processors, growers, distribution and logistics providers, and government agencies)
- Manufacturers and poolers of reusable packaging (pallets, containers, crates, totes, IBCs, drums, tanks, dunnage, racks, carts, dollies, and cargo protection)
- Suppliers/service providers to reusable packaging systems (washing & sanitizing equipment and services, sort and return services, asset repair, technology equipment and services, raw materials, engineering & design, and transportation & logistics)
The survey takes only 5 minutes to complete and is entirely anonymous. The insights gleaned from this important research will be used to inform the second State of the Reusable Packaging Industry Report to be published later this year. RPA’s inaugural State of the Reusable Packaging Industry Report was published in 2020.
The survey can be accessed here or at the RPA’s website, www.reusables.org.
