Why Altivity? ALTIVITY is a coined word that comes from altitude (alt) meaning new heights and performance, using action words like activity, creativity, ingenuity and flexibility (ivity). By combining the two, the company’s name represents the array of packaging products we offer, our mission, vision and our expectations for the future.
