Pallet
The smallest detail can make the difference between a successful pallet design and a costly mistake.
Packaging
Designing packaging elements independently curbs innovation and limits chances for exceptional savings.
Handling

New Packaging Saves Big Bucks
A manufacturer of porcelain plumbing supplies was seeing their profits go down the toilet. Literally. Damage rates were as high as 25%.
A common mistake we find in damage cases like this stems from designing the packaging separately from the pallet. Our technical team knows that architecting the unit load as a system provides best results.
After lab testing our new packaging system and running field trials, we reduced product damage to 0% saving this customer significant cash.
