One of the biggest hidden costs in logistics is packaging design.
Strong with this belief, we have created a new company designing and supplying packaging solutions, from simple to highly complex, and a department specializing in packaging-related services.
When we talk about cost optimization in logistics, we often first think of transportation, warehousing, or inventory management. But there's a hidden threat that's often overlooked: packaging! Packaging design is one of the main causes of inefficiencies in logistics and is the foundation of the supply chain itself.
It's the root of all evil in logistics and must be addressed immediately to avoid enormous damage.
Here's why:
- Wasted volume: Inappropriate packaging choices create empty spaces in containers and transport vehicles, reducing the number of products per shipment and increasing transportation costs.
- Risk of damage: Weak, oversized, or unprotected packaging increases the likelihood of product damage, oxidation, and resulting costs for returns, reshipments, and rework.
- Storage inefficiency: Irregularly shaped packaging takes up more space, increasing storage and handling costs and reducing warehouse efficiency.
- Unnecessary transportation costs: Oversized or excessively heavy packaging increases fuel consumption, shipping costs, and delays.
A proper packaging strategy, carefully considered during the design and co-design phase, is not just about protecting products: it is a powerful tool for reducing costs in supply chain management. chain.
