Cooperation and optimization of Altrum’s packaging
At CARTIER, our mission is to optimize packaging for companies across the province to help them reduce their costs and environmental footprint. We love working with them and learning about their realities in order to improve their packaging operations. Most recently, we worked with Altrum, a company that specializes in workplace recognition programs and commemorative products – trophies, medals, etc. Take a look at the positive impacts of their optimal packaging recipe, both on the planet and on their wallet! A proof that it is indeed possible to reduce our ecological footprint while reducing our costs, unlike what one might think!
