Iomega Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of EMC Corporation and a leader in storage and network security solutions has recently made changes to its packaging to allow for reduced haulage requirements, thus reducing the company’s impact on the environment.

Iomega’s classic packaging once held 245 units per pallet.  The new packaging (including that of the new Prestige Portable Hard Drive) now fits 360 units into each pallet, increasing by 46% the quantity shipped within the given space.  The drive to shrink haulage requirements has not stopped with product, space taken by point-of-sale merchandise was also reduced by 34%.
