Two specially designed ROPAK containers feature internal storage space for dunnage or trays during return shipments. The 40423 measures 40 x 48 inches and is 42.3 inches tall when open. When collapsed, it offers three inches of internal storage space. The 4A338 has a 45 x 48 inch footprint and is 33 inches tall when open. When collapsed, it offers eight inches of internal storage space. In addition, both the 40423 and 4A338 feature non-sequential folding sidewalls. Because the sidewalls do not have to be collapsed in a specific order, users no longer have to travel around the container in a pre-determined sequence, saving time and increasing productivity.

Model 5200rfid smart label printer-applicator is a system that prints, encodes, verifies and applies pressure-sensitive radio frequency identification (RFID) labels. In addition, if the operability of any RFID smart label is unable to be verified by the unit, the smart label is rejected and retained before application. Model 5200rfid offers a selection of print engines that uses thermal/thermal-transfer technology to produce smart labels with text, bar codes and graphics at 203 dots per inch. As labels are printed, digital information instantly is encoded on thin, ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID tags that are embedded in the smart label material.
