UFP Packaging announced the opening of its 10,000-square-foot
Packaging Design and Development Center (DDC) at its Newnan, Ga.,
facility.
The DDC features expanded, customer-focused spaces that foster
collaboration and innovation. Clients can engage directly in lab
testing, participate in design reviews and collaborate hands-on
with packaging development, creating a more interactive and
immersive experience.
“Many of our customers have unique products that require more
than an off-the-shelf packaging solution,” said Executive VP of
Structural Packaging J.F. Granger. “Our new design center will
enhance our service capabilities, protect their products through
rigorous testing and help our customers keep their customers
happy.”
The center includes a fully equipped prototyping shop and an
ISTA-certified testing laboratory. The DDC will focus on
sustainability, saving customers money by refining designs,
minimizing material waste and maximizing protection within the
supply chain through rigorous testing. PalletOne, a company of UFP
Packaging, will also use the center to host unit load design
classes and to optimize pallet solutions as a part of their Pallet
Concierge™ service.
Key testing services at the Design and Development Center
include:
- ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) Certified
laboratory
- 1 Series, 2C, 3ABEFK, 4AB, 6 Series
- Specializes in 3B (Less Than Truckload) and 3E (Full Truckload)
testing

The facility's strategic location near Atlanta, Ga., will
enhance service, speed and product quality, making it easy for
