Atlantic Packaging Products has received the 2025 Innovation in Safety Committee Choice Award from the Fibre Box Association (FBA) for a company-wide initiative aimed at improving dock and warehouse safety.
The recognition highlights a cross-functional task force launched in early 2025 across the company’s Ontario operations. The initiative focuses on identifying risks, standardizing safety practices and implementing targeted improvements in high-traffic logistics environments.
The program brings together teams from operations, health and safety, logistics and management to address hazards commonly associated with warehouse and loading dock activities. Measures introduced include updated safety procedures, improved communication protocols and the deployment of technologies such as pedestrian detection systems and designated walkways.
According to the company, the initiative has contributed to measurable improvements in safety performance across its facilities. The structured approach is designed to be scalable and replicable, supporting consistent safety standards across multiple sites.
The project reflects a broader industry focus on reducing risks in material handling and logistics areas, where interactions between equipment and personnel remain a key safety challenge.
The award was presented at the FBA annual meeting, recognizing initiatives that demonstrate innovation and impact in workplace safety within the corrugated packaging sector.
Atlantic Packaging Products is part of the Atlantic Packaging group of companies and operates as a North American supplier of corrugated packaging, paper bags and recycling services. The company’s activities span manufacturing and logistics operations across Canada and the United States.
