Nefab RePak is a rugged and easy-to-handle returnable packaging system. Constructed of plywood and steel components, Nefab RePak containers are designed to withstand the rigors of multi-use, and are available in a variety of standard and custom sizes. The product is collapsible to optimize space in return shipments and storage. General rule of thumb is that the Nefab RePak has a collapsibility ratio of 1/5 that of a standard nailed wood crate.
A returnable packaging system can realize significant cost savings compared to a one-way solution. Nefab RePak options are highly cost-effective if your material flow is reasonably large and you have few distribution points.

Nefab’s staff use a software system called RECO, which when filled in with correct data, can formulate; optimal packaging solutions for freight savings, the number of containers needed in their respective flows, and overall cost savings for moving to a returnable packaging solution vs. using one-ways for domestic or local distribution.
