MedPax are individual dose packs for patients with multiple formulas that have been put into individual packs for daytime, evening, and bedtime use. Formerly offered in plastic bottles, they now will be de- livered in cartons. “That’s eliminated hundreds of thousands of bottles since we initiated that program,” says Blackburn. “Lastly, as part of our Clean Seas Initiative, because we’re doing so much in cartons, we’ve expanded our print division, now called XYMO- Print,” Blackburn says. The company is currently assembling a brand new, HP Indigo 30,000 digital press in its new building. “There are only 24 of them in the whole United States,” he claims. “It’s, by far, the most advanced, digital, folding carton press. It’s going to do all of our cartons - 4,600 sheets per hour and those sheets are 600 square inches. So, we’re able to get all the carton busi- ness for Renew Life and Isagenix.We anticipate that for the XYMOPrint division, the prospects are XYMOGEN
