Each Pack Trax Report discusses potential cost reduction for one packaging category. This is content you simply cannot

Our August 2026 report delivered performance-driven cost reduction for corrugated containers. The four performance improvement recommendations we made and costed could deliver up to 17% cost improvement. That more than offsets the price escalation for containers which has occurred this year.
And our strategy advice delivers a new supplier management platform which outperforms traditional competitive leverage strategies which no longer work effectively in the current marketplace for items such as containerboard which has become highly rationalized in the past two years.
We also pointed out how the implementation of new U.S. tariffs of 50% may have enabled the hefty price increase by essentially eliminating more than 1 million tons of import supply from the U.S. market. This made a snug market exceedingly tight.
This is information you simply cannot get anywhere else.
