Over a decade in development, the Sleepy system is helping busy new parents catch up on much needed rest, essential for the rigours of modern family life.

With consumer environmental awareness at an all-time high, this Earth Day is sure to be widely celebrated.

Nationwide, large retailers and product manufacturers are taking giant steps to move the country in a greener direction, while more and more legislation is coming into place mandating that products be made using more environmentally sensitive processes and packaging materials. Many large corporations are doing their part to conform to government regulations while struggling to maintain their profit margins and avoid passing on any additional costs to the consumer. During these difficult economic times, retailers are strategically shrinking their inventories and will no doubt show preference to product suppliers who are leading the way in eco-friendly packaging.

The next few years will bring many changes in packaging and AVC Corp. ( http://www.avccorp.com ), an industry leader in environmental packaging solutions, already has the answers.

The Torrance, Calif.-based custom packaging and media replication company continues to stay several steps ahead of legislation and retailer mandates. AVC has long recognized the need to move to greener packaging materials and processes while maintaining a cost-effective system.

Because of its progress in the research and development of reusable and sustainable packaging designs and materials, AVC was invited to participate as a vendor in the Wal-Mart Environmental Sustainability Packaging Fair, held April 12 through 14 in Bentonville, Ark. The one-stop, vertically integrated manufacturing company experienced a great deal of success showcasing its line of environmentally friendly packaging designs made with eco-sensitive PVC alternatives.

“We were successful at the packaging summit because not only do we have what our competitors have to offer in terms of green packaging, but we are one of the few companies offering clarified Styrene as an alternative to PVC,” said Al Hernandez, key account sales executive for AVC Corp. “We offer a larger line of reusable products made from recyclable materials, which gives our clients more choices to package their products while doing their part to protect the environment.”

In these challenging economic times, cities and municipalities are seeking cost effective shelter and storage options for their various public works needs. For the city of Vancouver, the often harsh Canadian winter season called for a salt containment facility that would provide a dry sheltered environment with immediate scoop-and-load access to the large salt supply reserves used to combat ice and snow. Featuring the patented VersaTube® Slip-Fit steel frame system, the three-man Easy Build Structures crew installed a three-sided 40-foot wide by 60-foot long by 16-foot high steel shelter on top of a 9-foot high concrete stem wall using standard tools, a 25-foot boom crane for lifting and placing the trusses, and a platform lift for attaching the roofing and siding panels. The resulting 25-foot high steel building was wired for electricity to accommodate halogen bay lights used for 24-hour salt loading when weather conditions dictate. Response from Vancouver city officials was positive, stating that "the job was completed to our high expectations and we love it!" Easy Build Structures reports that those same city officials are now considering additional steel buildings as shelters for water tanks and other public works uses.
