Sunny Delight Beverages Co. will begin shipping its products throughout the U.S. on Intelligent Global Pooling Systems' (iGPS Co., LLC) all-plastic pallets with embedded RFID tags, commencing immediately. Sunny Delight produces and markets such brands as SunnyD.
"At Sunny Delight, we regard sustainability as a strategic imperative, and iGPS' all-plastic pallets will further help us to meet our objective for continual sustainability improvements," says Ellen Iobst, senior vice president of manufacturing and technology. "The lighter weight of iGPS' pallet reduces fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions."
iGPS' pallets are 100 percent recyclable and 30 percent lighter than pallets made of wood, the company says.
"Sunny Delight is a great success story and we're excited to begin working together," says Bob Moore, chairman and CEO of iGPS. "As two companies committed to environmental responsibility, I'm confident that this will be a great partnership."
