Challenge
Design a more economical pack while meeting the following customer expectations:- Simplify assembly
- Decrease amount of material without compromising strength
- Reduce footprint of pack
- Lower freight cost of pack
Results
The Pro-Pak Industries design process yielded a pack that:- Reduced material by 16 sq. ft, decreasing per part cost by 94 cents
- Offered a smaller footprint that increased number of parts per truck (108 fewer truckloads per year)
- Simplified design, improving assembly time
- Generated total annual savings of $223,404 (31% cost reduction)
We continually strive for further cost savings through periodic reexaminations of our customers’ packaging system.
