What ORBIS Corp. does

ORBIS Corporation is a private manufacturer of reusable plastic packaging, wholly-owned by Menasha Corporation and headquartered in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. The company designs and produces plastic pallets, bulk containers, hand-held containers, storage bins, metal racks, dunnage, and custom engineered packaging across twelve product categories and multiple sub-brands (Odyssey, BulkPak, FliPak, StakPak, LEWISBins+, AROS, ORBIShield, XPRESSPICKUP, BulkTote). Manufacturing is conducted through three core processes, injection molding, structural foam, and thermoforming (the latter expanded via the Robinson Industries acquisition), which the company describes as unique within the reusable packaging industry. ORBIS also operates ORBIS RPM, a reusable packaging management service that provides asset tracking, cleaning, sorting, and pooling for closed-loop customer programs.

The company serves enterprise customers in automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and medical, e-commerce, retail distribution, agriculture, and electronics manufacturing, with dedicated product lines for emerging segments such as electric vehicle packaging and ESD-protected electronics. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contracts, and go-to-market is sales-led via direct field representatives and a website-based Request a Quote channel, supported by content marketing, case studies, whitepapers, tradeshows, and active social media. ORBIS operates wholly-owned subsidiaries in Canada, Mexico, Germany, and Belgium, and reports diverting nearly one million pounds of single-use plastic from oceans annually through its repurposed plastics and recycling programs. The business is privately held with no public ticker or disclosed funding rounds, and revenue figures are not publicly available.
