NewsPretium Packaging Plant Achieves Seven Years Without Lost Time AccidentPretium Packaging, a St. Louis-based manufacturer of custom plastic packaging solutions for consumer and institutional products, has achieved seven years without a lost-time accident at its Seymour, IN plant. This remarkable record was achieved because of the everyday safety awareness throughout this plant. Safety is at the forefront on a daily basis and is reinforced through regular promotions, contests and more. In the event that an accident does occur, the plant manages productivity by getting employees back to work as quickly as possible, and by finding alternative, light-duty positions for employees that allow them to quickly return to the workforce. This excellent track record reduces company expenses on workman's comp and disability insurance. In addition to a superb safety record, Pretium's Seymour plant has also achieved a record year of sales. This past year, we have made more bottles, maintained improved quality standards and greatly improved our ability to deliver on time, than in any previous year. David Winslett, President, added, "Safety and profitability go hand in hand, and Seymour is a great example of this. We are very proud of our Seymour employees." Pretium's Seymour plant is working to achieve ISO 9000 certification in 2004. Pretium Packaging is reshaping the plastic packaging industry by stressing speed to market, custom design and manufacturing responsiveness. In addition to primary plastic packaging, Pretium also offers customizable delivery and inventory programs to meet customer needs.
