Olin Offering TRA-PAK To Trade, Being Used Widely The makers of Olin Cellophane .and Olin Polyethylene are offering their Tra-Pak, free of charge, to the trade. The Tra-Pak, which has inspired packaging decisions since introduced 18 months ago, consists of eight sample trays, each repre senting a basic packaging idea. It helps business executives develop quickly the type of tray design that best fits today’s self-service pack aging requirements for food, candy, drug and other consumer products. Olin Cellophane and Olin Poly ethylene are made by the film di vision of Olin Mathieson Chemical corporation. Arthur T. Safford, Jr., divisional sales manager, said his company decided to give away the Tra-Pak because it had proven to be the basis of so many new tray construc tions. “Our salesmen consider the Tra-Pak one of their prime sales aids,” he said. “Our belief that a packaging decision can change the course of a business has been up held. We want to help business in making such packaging decisions.” The Tra-Pak can be obtained from any Olin Cellophane convert er or from the Olin Film Division, G55 Madison avenue, New York.
