The moment a consumer picks up a product, its packaging tells a story even before a single word is read or a seal is broken. More than just a protective shell, it shapes perceptions, influences purchasing decisions, and signals a company’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
Morris Packaging, an MBE manufacturer emphasizes that sustainable packaging shouldn’t be an afterthought. Rather, — when done right — it will serve as a powerful differentiator that effortlessly elevates a product’s appeal and reinforces its value.
Rooted in this understanding, Morris Packaging combines custom engineering, eco-friendly materials and supply chain optimization to create efficient, high-performance packaging that seamlessly integrates into existing production processes.
“We help businesses switch to sustainable packaging without sacrificing production speed,” says Brian Steinwagner, Executive Vice President. “We have invested time and engineering expertise to overcome this by developing sustainable packaging that maintains high production speeds, assuring that clients do not experience operational slowdowns.”
A key differentiator of their packaging is the use of up to 45 percent recycled content, maintaining strength while reducing reliance on raw materials. By incorporating post-consumer and post-industrial recycled materials, the solution remains cost-efficient, with little to no increase in cost at this inclusion rate.
The company offers 100 percent recycle-ready packaging options, enabling companies to meet sustainability goals while maintaining the same level of durability and functionality. It also provides tailored recommendations on materials, recyclability and the best options for their specific operational requirements.

Once the ideal solution is identified, a structured trial process is implemented—first through test runs, then limited production and finally, full-scale implementation to achieve a smooth transition.
Beyond packaging design, Morris Packaging recognizes the vital role of logistics in sustainability. Through vendor-managed inventory (VMI) programs and logistics optimization services, the company analyzes shipping patterns and tracks emissions to consolidate shipments and maximize truckload efficiency— reducing both transportation costs and carbon footprint.
Their stocking programs further enhance inventory planning, making sure that packaging supply aligns with demand, reducing excess storage costs and unnecessary freight movement while supporting broader corporate sustainability goals.
A notable example involves a leading pet industry supplier who sought a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to their rigid plastic jugs. Morris Packaging stepped in to offer EcoPour, a fully recycle-ready flexible flat-bottom bag with a handle, zipper and pour spout, maintaining functionality while reducing plastic use by 80 percent. This transition enhanced logistics efficiency and significantly lowered packaging costs, with one truckload of pouches replacing 22 truckloads of jugs.
The ability to design quality packages stems from its team’s extensive industry experience, which spans over a century of combined knowledge. The team works closely with customers to engineer packaging that meets both performance and environmental benchmarks.
Sustainability and efficiency extend beyond the final product— they must be integrated throughout the supply chain. Morris Packaging requires all its top suppliers, representing 99.3 percent of their manufacturing vendors, to sign their Supplier Code of Conduct, reinforcing the company’s commitment to ESG principles. This ensures responsible sourcing, fair labor practices and alignment with global sustainability standards.
The company’s integration of efficiency and sustainability is helping clients move beyond traditional packaging constraints. For businesses where packaging is a critical component of product integrity and brand responsibility, Morris Packaging provides a holistic and forward-thinking solution.
