Veritiv to Begin Shipping Corrugated Partitions to Promote Workplace Health and Safety

Veritiv (Atlanta, Georgia) will soon begin shipments of work-safe partitions built from corrugated materials. Cost-effective, easy to set up and environmentally friendly, these partitions give business and academic environments a safe and simple way to help protect employees, customers and students.

“During the COVID-19 pandemic, cardboard and corrugated materials have been used to deliver medications, food, clothing and necessary supplies to the doorsteps of consumers around the globe,” the company pointed out. “Now, corrugated board will assist with a safer return to the workplace or classroom, as these partitions encourage social distancing and provide a physical, yet removable, barrier.”

Customers can order as few as six partitions or as many as several thousand, depending upon the need. This flexibility in ordering makes the partitions ideal for small businesses with a few employees, large enterprises, and academic institutions. In addition, they can be set up easily by employees. Inserted between desks, manufacturing lines or to create temporary gating for queues, the partitions can be customized to include company logos, personalized messaging and information in your language of choice. As such, the corrugated partitions not only serve as physical barriers to help aid in social distancing, but are also an effective communications tool sharing specific information important to business owners or school administrators.

“As we live and work through COVID-19, we’re pleased to provide this tool to our customers to help everyone return to a new normal,” said Lloyd Kennedy, Director of Category and Strategy at Veritiv. “I, like so many, have eagerly awaited the delivery of ‘the box’ to arrive on my doorstep bringing needed supplies. Now, this everyday material can be leveraged in allowing us all to return to our schools or offices. It’s amazing to think that something so seemingly simple, can play such a different role in our new daily lives.” Veritiv is a leading North American business-to-business distributor of print and publishing products and services, packaging, facility solutions, and logistics and supply-chain management solutions.
