WHEN?: Now and through Memorial Day Weekend – May 20th- 26th

WHY?: Memorial Day is always met with eager anticipation of warmer weather and fun summer vacations, however, for thousands of military families, May is a time of sadness and solemnity as they remember their fallen loved ones. Since the United States military is a key PACT customer, the CT-based business is eager to show its gratitude to all humble heroes and selfless servicepeople during the national commemoration.

Since the program’s inception in 2022, PACT has raised close to $10,000 for America’s servicemen and women and hopes to exceed that goal this year.

PACT, LLC is a global leader in manufacturing sustainable, packaging products for the commercial, industrial and military industries. With more than 25 years of experience, the family business was founded by three green packaging professionals and continues to embrace a green future by designing cost-effective, patented, crating solutions like LiftVans and PleatWrap, as well as custom packaging for the aerospace, medical, electronics, tooling, machinery, furniture, fine art and automotive sectors.  The company’s newest innovation is Thermo Shield, a sustainable paper-based packaging material that suppresses and controls lithium-ion battery fires by mitigating thermal runaway. PACT is a preferred vendor for the US Department of Defense and has been awarded two special permits from the US Department of Transportation for the shipping of lithium-ion batteries, as well as passed the proposed SAE-G-27 test standard.
