WHAT It's About
The Green Pizza Box Program™ comes from Correll Concepts. Correll Concepts is a pioneering pizza box design firm. We invent unique pizza box concepts. We are NOT a box manufacturer or distributor. The purpose of the Green Pizza Box Program is: To provide a GREEN packaging option for the pizza industry. This program is for pizza box Manufacturers, Distributors, Pizza Chains, and Single-unit Independents who are truly interested in Going Green. This program is an all-win, no-lose deal. Meaning, it not only promotes Going Green, it saves you money, to boot.

ADVANTAGES of the Program
For a PIZZA BOX MANUFACTURER, this Green Pizza Box Program™ provides you an opportunity to capture a “first to market” competitive advantage in the Going Green movement. All our box designs are in ArtiosCAD design files. So, we can easily customize any box concept to your specs, and can email any CAD files to you for cost estimating, sample cutting, and testing. We're also open to working with you to customize any particular box concept to perfectly meet the needs of any of your major clients.

For a DISTRIBUTOR, this program provides you an opportunity to capture new customers and better serve your present ones. If you're a national distribution network, this provides you an opportunity to capture a national presence and reputation as a “prime mover” in the pizza industry's Going Green initiative. We can work with any box-maker of your choice, including your present one.

For a MAJOR PIZZA CHAIN, this program provides you an opportunity to truly make a difference in the national Going Green movement, and to further project a positive, community-oriented image. It also provides you a possible opportunity to have your own customized Green Pizza Box — which could translate into substantial competitive advantage.

For a SMALLER PIZZA CHAIN or a SINGLE-UNIT INDEPENDENT, this program provides you an opportunity to gain new competitive advantage. Here's how to make it happen. Bring this Green Pizza Box Program™ to the attention of your pizza box distributor. Ask them to begin stocking the particular Green Pizza Box (below) that you'd like to use. Give them the address of this website — greenpizzaboxes.com — and request that they contact us. We'd welcome the opportunity to work with them in stocking the Green Pizza Box of your choice.

5 Powerful Green Pizza Box Concepts
Presented below are five uniquely-powerful, green pizza box concepts. Each of them saves on natural resources and also saves on cost. Look them over. Then pick the one that best fits your company's operational and marketing priorities. (Or, if you're a box-maker or distributor, pick the one that best fits your clients' priorities.)

In selecting the right green box for you, keep this point in mind: No box is the best box for every company. For example, if you'd like to have the greenest box of all — the UltraSaver Box would be it. However, if you'd like a green box that's rugged, has a classy look, and offers some unique operational features, take a close look at the D-Saver Box. If you'd like a green box that involves no operational changes, the SquareSaver Box would be your answer. If you'd like a green box that sets up instantaneously and also has a rigid, quality feel (while coming in space-saving E-flute, too boot), the TimeSaver Box is your magic solution. Lastly, if you'd like a box that provides unique product-enhancement — like keeping your pizza up to 25% hotter on the customers' table — you need to examine the HeatSaver Box.

For a 5-box Comparison Summary, click HERE. (TIP: Print out this Summary for easy reference.)

The design commission for each box is one percent (1%) of the factory price of the box. This commission will be included in the price of the box. So, the cost-saving figures shown below are NET of the one percent design commission — meaning, they're derived with the one percent commission already factored in.

The material-savings and cost-savings percentages given below are averages. Material and cost savings percents vary from box-size to box-size and also by type of flute (i.e., B-flute or E-flute) used for making the box. These percentages are in comparison to the traditional pizza box presently used by most pizza companies — otherwise known as the “walker lock box.”

1 - UltraSaver Box

Greenest, Lowest-cost Fully-functional Corrugated Pizza Box on the Planet.™

UltraSaver Pizza Box

•  Resource (paper) savings: 18%   /   COST SAVINGS: 12%

•  Shape: Non-square

•  Flute: E-flute

•  Folding Procedure: Similar to but not exactly the same as the traditional (walker lock) pizza box.

•  Customizability: Highly customizable. Amenable to creating a unique look and proprietary image for a major user. To see some unique customizing possibilities, click HERE.

•  Key Benefits: The greenest, lowest-cost of all fully-functional corrugated pizza boxes — greater resource and cost savings than any other on the market. If you're a major pizza chain, switching to this box can have a significant environmental effect. It can reduce the number of trees required to make your boxes by as much as 18 percent. That saves nearly 1 of every 5 trees presently being cut down for making your pizza boxes. This is a difference that would actually make a difference. Also, this box is customizable for uniquely powerful visual impact (if you're a major pizza chain, send us your logo and some recent print marketing pieces and we'll give you some sample illustrations). Plus, it's made of E-flute board — which means, if you're presently using a B-flute box, this UltraSaver™ Box will reduce your box blank storage requirements (warehouse, truck, pizzeria) by almost half.

•  Exclusivity Availability: Will consider providing either an exclusive license or patent assignment to a company that sells or uses at least 50 million units annually.

2 - D-Saver Box

Greenest, Lowest-cost Fully-functional Non-fixed-corner D-box There Is.™

D-Saver Pizza Box

•  Resource (paper) savings: 10%   /   COST SAVINGS: 7%

•  Shape: Non-square. Some box-makers refer to this shape of box as a “D-type box.” However, this Correll Concepts version of D-type box not only saves in natural resources and cost over the traditional square pizza box, it also saves in resources and cost over most other D-type boxes presently on the market. For example, as compared to the D-type box currently used by Domino's Pizza, this new D-Saver™ Box saves 4% in material and 2% in cost.

•  Flute: B-flute

•  Folding Procedure: Completely different from the folding procedure of the traditional (walker lock) pizza box. It's folded up using the same procedure as is used for folding the current Domino's Pizza pizza box. This might cause some folks to believe that the box would be hard to fold up. But it's actually no harder than folding a traditional pizza box. Here's what you need to know. Domino's Pizza stores fold up over 200 million units of D-type box per year. Their employees are no smarter or more talented than yours. Meaning, your employees could easily fold up this new, cost-saving D-Saver™ Box.

•  Customizability: Moderate. Amenable to creating a unique look and proprietary image for a major user. Also can be customized with a powerful PromoTab™ Feature.

•  Key Benefits: Substantial stacking strength. Easy in-box pizza cutting — even with a rocker knife. Has exterior cover side flaps, so there's absolutely no chance for side-crushing of the pizza. Also, customizable for uniquely powerful visual impact (if you're a major pizza chain, send us your logo and some recent print marketing pieces and we'll give you some sample illustrations). Also, this box can incorporate our powerful, unique PromoTab™ Feature … at no additional cost. In summary, this D-Saver™ Box delivers the same performance benefits as the current Domino's Pizza box plus it provides some additional benefits, to boot — including enhanced resource and cost savings.

•  Exclusivity Availability: Will consider providing either an exclusive license or patent assignment to a company that sells or uses at least 50 million units annually.

•  Shape: Square

•  Flute: B-flute

•  Folding Procedure: Same as the traditional pizza box.

•  Customizability: Minimal. Can customize the size, but not the cover shape.

•  Key Benefits: Looks similar to the traditional pizza box. Folds up similar to the traditional pizza box, so no new procedures are involved. And, delivers a fairly substantial material (or board) savings over the traditional box. This SquareSaver™ Box is for those who want to Go Green but don't want to venture into a new shape of box.

InstaSaver Pizza Box

•  Resource (paper) savings: 7%   /   COST SAVINGS: 4%

Greener Box … PLUS Hotter Pizza, Too.™

HeatSaver Pizza Box

•  Resource (paper) savings: 5%   /   COST SAVINGS: 2%

•  Shape: Square, shown above. HOWEVER, it also comes in a D-type box version. To see what it looks like, click HERE.

•  Folding Procedure: Same as the traditional (walker lock) pizza box ... or, same as the SquareSaver™ Box. This box is "built" on the platform of the SquareSaver™ Box.

•  Customizability: Minimal. Can customize the size, but not the cover shape.

•  Key Benefits: Keeps your customers’ pizza up to 25% HOTTER on their table (while they're eating). Also, eliminates the wet, messy tabletop that many customers hate and keeps the box bottom dry (no more soggy-cardboard taste). If properly promoted, this box would provide a substantial, unique competitive advantage. (Note: The D-type version possesses virtually all the same benefits as the above square version.) Visit the link below for the details on this exciting box.

•  Exclusivity Availability: Will consider providing either an exclusive license or patent assignment to a company that sells or uses at least 50 million units annually. This applies to both the square version and the D-type version.
