Compadre

Our Value to You
Compadre helps with product delivery - what it takes to get a product from the production line to the consumer, and back again at the end of its useful life. We specialize in:

· Materials-Neutral Packaging Design and P ackage Prototype Samples

· Packaging Testing

· Materials Management and Sourcing

· Ultralite Fulfillment

We create and manage SmartHUBsT for packaging materials. These hubs provide the agile, end-to-end infrastructure necessary for the dynamic volume, highly personalized, quick-turn solutions needed by manufacturers.

Our Service

The process has three core competencies:

1. Materials Neutral Packaging Design, Prototyping & Testing

2. End-to-End Sourcing and Management

3. Ultralite^TM Fulfillment

Materials Neutral Packaging Design, Prototyping & Testing

Compadre's Packaging Design and Testing Center is located in Austin, Texas. It is the largest ISTA Certified Test Lab in central Texas. . Our Packaging Design Engineering team has over 75 combined years of packaging design and transit testing experience.

Design is at the core of SmartHUB. Our design team delivers elegance, functionality and efficiency in the way that minimizes environmental and maximizes the bottom line. Our end-to-end capabilities mean that SmartHUB has the tools to develop and complete prototype packaging, verify assembly and packing processes, and make sure it's ideal for both the product and the end-user. Everything we create is tested in our ISTA-certified testing lab.

End-to-End Sourcing and Management
Compadre manages and sources all of the materials, services, and technology necessary to execute upon product delivery. This includes everything from packaging to inbound logistics, print-on-demand, warranty service and support, recalls, call center support and web pages. The result is one provider that will dramatically free up overhead, reduce inventory positions, and drive down costs. Combine this with "just-in-time" delivery and we can guarantee that you pay only for what you need, when you need it, without delays or interruptions on the line.

Ultralite^TM Fulfillment
Often, manufacturing involves projects that have dynamic volume with quick turns, highly customized, and with geographically disperse, diverse needs. These projects will benefit from a custom-made fulfillment solution that meets specific needs while at the same time working within your established and familiar systems. Compadre's Ultralite Fulfillment offers great flexibility: we handle inbound and outbound logistics, materials sourcing, product customization and postponement. We also evaluate and balance site proximity, material lead times and production costs.

Compadre's core purpose is The Relentless Pursuit of a Better Way.
