"Our relationships with our customers is what drives our business," said Mitch Solway, Director of Marketing, Polyair. "And what they tell us they value most is the confidence that Polyair is spending the time to really understand their business needs. The Polyair Superheroes are just a fun way to communicate what it is like to do business with Polyair. With a superhero on your side there is so much less to worry about and that means more time focused on building your business." In Good Company Polyair has quickly become a leader in the packaging industry by developing outstanding business relationships with its customers. "With competition being so fierce, we have to rely on our ability to listen to our customers and provide them with value they are not seeing from other companies," continues Solway. "Every day we are working directly with our customers on new product executions and implementations that meet their specific needs. This requires extreme flexibility and demands a greater understanding of each customer's unique situation-but at the end of the day the pay off for the customer is much stronger. And, that makes good sense for us." It is these relationships that have lead to Polyair's success in the marketplace. Since Pack Expo International 2002, Polyair sales growth has outpaced its two largest national competitors. In that time, Polyair has picked up the protective packaging business for such shipping heavyweights as: -- Avon -- Eckerd Drug Corporation -- Electrolux Home Products -- FedEx -- Federated Department Stores -- Hyundai -- Office Depot -- Panasonic -- Sephora -- U.S. Postal Service Full Range of Packaging Solutions "Polyair has grown aggressively to become one of the largest manufacturers of protective packaging products in North America. We are extremely proud of our products and challenge anyone to compete with us on quality or reliability. As strong as our products are, our real strength comes from our commitment to our customers. In fact most of our new product ideas come from the ongoing and open dialogue and partnerships we have with them," said Solway. "An example of this collaboration is Polyair's Kangaroo Pouch Machine. This is the first compact automatic pouch that sits in a customer's facility. Pouches are one of the best ways for Polyair's customers to save time and money when packaging products. This product was developed as a result of feedback from many of Polyair's customers who needed a quick, effective, customizable packaging solution. And to date, we are still the only ones offering this type of application." Through its Industrial, Consumer and Home Improvement Divisions, Polyair serves most major market sectors, including e-business and retail networks, automotive, pharmaceutical, furniture, fulfillment, and commercial and do-it- yourself home improvement. As a result of its customer-centric approach, Polyair's protective packaging line is one of the most diverse in the industry. The core product line includes: Durabubble: Available in a variety of thickness and bundle sizes, Durabubble is fully recyclable and provides outstanding cushioning and protection. Mailers: Ecolite Kraft bubble mailers, Fastpack courier bags, and the new XPAK polyethylene bubble ultimate mailer all offer a lightweight, easy-to-use and more cost effective alternative to boxes and other containers. Starfoam: Polyair's Starfoam is highly resistant to punctures, tears, and impact while providing excellent surface protection and cushioning. Systems: From the unique Kangaroo compact pouch machine to the highly efficient and clean Airspace Pillow system, Polyair works with each customer to develop a packaging solution most appropriate for them. The goal is a system that will ensure maximum productivity, efficiency and cost savings on a minimal footprint. Insulation: Polyair's line of insulative products utilizes radiant technology to increase insulation efficiency and maintain and sustain temperature control of temperature sensitive packages. "The Polyair Superheroes are really about our promise to our customers. It's about having the ultimate feeling of protection that only a Superhero can bring -- and confidence that you are really being looked after," said Solway.
