Labelmaster and Endural Partner to Provide Plastic Hazardous Packaging Solutions for Auto Industry

Labelmaster, the leading provider of labels, packaging and technology for the safe and compliant transport of dangerous goods (DG) and hazardous materials (hazmat), and industry-leading plastic casing company Endural today announced a partnership in order to provide the automotive industry with sustainable, reusable plastic packaging options for transporting lithium batteries and other DG.

The partnership combines Labelmaster’s large format lithium battery packaging and shipping expertise with Endural’s durable plastic casing to offer a sustainable and cost-effective packaging solution that benefits the automotive aftermarket industry. This allows Labelmaster to now offer plastic packaging solutions for transporting damaged, defective or recalled (DDR) lithium batteries and modules found in electric vehicles (EV), in addition to its existing wood and metal casing options. Endural customers benefit by gaining access to plastic cases that are compliant with UN regulations for transporting hazmat and are supported by the industry leader in DG solutions and services.

“Labelmaster continues to expand its offerings in order to provide the automotive industry with global regulatory expertise, technology solutions, innovative packaging and end-to-end management services for safely and compliantly transporting large format lithium batteries and other hazmat throughout the supply chain,” said Alan Schoen, president, Labelmaster. “Partnering with an expert in the automotive aftermarket like Endural enables Labelmaster to offer a wider range of packaging solutions for transporting large format lithium batteries in order to meet the growing needs of the automotive industry.”

Endural’s durable plastic containers offer greater flexibility for reuse by offering a wide range of inserts designed to fit all battery shipping needs. Made of recycled material and almost completely recyclable, Endural’s reusable plastic cases are lighter than wood and metal containers, won’t get damaged or leak while in transit and can last for years. The cases are stackable, reducing space in both a truck and the warehouse, and are forklift and pallet jack moveable.

“The growing EV market has brought with it a greater volume of lithium batteries moving through the supply chain,” said Jeff Pyle, president & CEO, Endural. “Labelmaster’s understanding of lithium battery transport, along with its full suite of DG labeling, technology and training solutions, enables Endural to provide a more complete, compliant packaging solution to our customers.”
