“In a year of unprecedented challenges, the companies on this list exhibit fearlessness, ingenuity, and creativity in the face of crisis,” said Fast Company Deputy Editor David Lidsky, who oversaw the issue with Senior Editor Amy Farley.

The flexible technologies offered by Ranpak, such as AccuFill® Next Generation Void Fill Solution, of PadPak® Guardian™ Next Generation Cushioning Solution, Enhanced FillPak Trident™ Solution, all of which were launched or made more broadly available in the last year, help companies meet many new packaging challenges. Warehousing and transport operations see particular benefits from truly flexible cushioning, wrapping and void fill solutions. These solutions help customers streamline their packaging operations, many of which saw increased pressures due to COVID-19, so that they are equipped to maximize efficiencies in warehouse, supply chain and logistics operations.

Ranpak’s automated solutions also help its customers analyze and improve consumables costs, seasonal volume peaks, pallet filling rates and freight optimization. Ranpak’s automation technology delivers better speed, higher-productivity and more cost effectiveness for its customers, resulting in a packaging process that is more efficient, has a lower total cost of ownership, and is tailored to its customer’s specific, and ever-changing, business needs.

In addition, sustainability remains at the core of the company’s DNA. Ranpak is dedicated to replacing plastic and other less-sustainable secondary packaging material with paper. From the outset, Ranpak’s mission has been to help improve supply chain performance and cost while reducing environmental impact, by replacing traditional petro-chemical-based packaging with a sustainable alternative – paper. All of the company’s paper packaging materials are renewable, biodegradable and curbside recyclable.

Fast Company’s editors and writers sought out the most groundbreaking businesses across the globe and industries. They also judged nominations received through their application process.

The World’s Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company’s signature franchise and one of its most highly anticipated editorial efforts of the year. It provides both a snapshot and a road map for the future of innovation across the most dynamic sectors of the economy.
