Lab-pack software

Pack-Star

Lab packing without the guesswork.

For years, lab packing has run on printed charts, a chemist's memory and paperwork typed twice. Pack-Star takes the guesswork out, with automated sorting, profiling and manifesting that hold every job to the same standard. It's built for field crews, lab managers, site managers and anyone who prepares hazardous-waste manifests.

The difference

The end of second-guessing.

When what a crew knows is scattered across binders, inboxes and memories, every job depends on who shows up. Pack-Star enforces the same rules on every job, every time.

Segregation

The usual way Worked out from printed compatibility charts and whatever the crew remembers about the exceptions.

With Pack-Star Checked against DOT, RCRA and facility rules on every placement, before a drum is closed.

Consistency

The usual way Two packers can pack the same shelf two different ways, and both believe they're right.

With Pack-Star Every packer works to the same standard, from a first-week technician to a senior chemist.

Approvals

The usual way Kept in email threads and PDFs, and checked by hand once the packing is done.

With Pack-Star Each pack is built to a waste profile its facility has already approved.

Paperwork

The usual way Manifests, notices and packing lists typed up by hand, and often typed again into EPA's e-Manifest.

With Pack-Star Written once from the job itself, and published electronically to EPA's RCRAInfo.

Mistakes

The usual way Found at the dock, at the facility or in an inspection, when they cost the most to put right.

With Pack-Star Caught while you pack, when putting one right takes a moment.

On the job

What changes for your crew.

The rules exist to keep people, communities and the ground beneath them safe. Pack-Star makes sure they're applied on every job, by everyone on it.

  • Right first time

    The rules are checked as each drum is packed, not after it's closed.

  • Written once

    The manifest, the restriction notices and the packing slips all come from the job itself, so they agree with each other.

  • One standard

    Experience still counts. It's just no longer the only safeguard.

  • Fits your business

    Set up for the way you work, while the rules that keep you compliant stay fixed.

After the truck leaves

Constellar takes it from there.

Every shipment Pack-Star plans can be followed in Constellar by the generator, the transporters and the facility, all the way to treatment. Together they're one system, built to put you light years ahead of the industry.
