About UsAbout Us

Quality Assurance

• We are committed to developing and distributing only the highest quality products, while ensuring that these products represent the maximum value in the marketplace. Additionally, customer service is a top priority, and we always strive to support and improve relationships with our vendors, distributors, and customers.

Community Relations

• CRI believes strongly in giving back to the community and supporting local efforts. A portion of profits is distributed annually to local charities, and each CRI employee is able to allocate their share to a non-profit organization of their choice.

• Additionally, our New Jersey facility formed the Everybody-Works-Today™ partnership with Bancroft Neurohealth, finding ways to maximize the capabilities of those in our community with developmental disabilities. We provide a stimulating and developmentally enriching environment to help individuals learn valuable social and work skills while earning competitive wages.

Environment Safeguards

• CRI, 2000 LP and its subsidiaries require all packaging to meet the UK Directive, EC 94/62. The aim of EC 94-62 is to reduce packaging waste and provide environmental protection by setting maximum limits for heavy metal content allowed in packaging material. All our paints, pens and inks meet ASTM D4236 and are non-toxic. Our New Jersey facility helps to reduce waste and promote recycling by converting cardboard destined for the landfill into some of the best packing material available. Our Corr-0-Shred™ Packaging Material provides enhanced buffering for all small-parcel shipments and can be stuffed squeezed, re-formed and even web-wrapped around just about any product.
