1. What will you find in this ‘Packaging Guide’?

The new forms of trade have transformed the way of packaging and the improvement of the process and the result offers a significant added value. What are the keys to be at the height of both the final consumer and the company that makes shipments? In our guide we will explain the most important aspects

• How to protect goods: the main objective is that the products arrive at their destination in good condition. Therefore, in the “Packaging Guide” we show you how to properly fit the products in a box with the appropriate protection against shocks during transport and subsequent handling. In addition, it is essential that the packaging has the appropriate strength depending on the weight, the fragility of the product and the type of shipment. Finally, the guide also explores how to protect the goods from the risk of crushing, as well as from external conditions, such as rain or storage conditions
• How to guarantee the best transport conditions: the choice of the box and the filler is decisive whether the transport is invoiced by weight or by volumetric weight. In this sense, in the guide you will find advice on how to
  • Lighten packaging and stuffing.
  • Take care of the maximum weight and dimensions of packages.
  • Optimise dimensions for equivalent weight.
  • Think of packaging in terms of transport:choose, arrange and protect the pallet correctly.

• How to avoid malicious acts during the shipping phase: to improve protection during shipping, we show you protected box systems, as well as how to choose the right adhesive and its placement depending on the weight of the package. We also detail the tamper-proof seals that you can use to guarantee that the package has not been opened during transport.
• How to save storage space: optimise your choice of packaging to reduce storage costs with systems such as bubble wrap or height-adjustable boxes.
• Fasterorder picking: Automated solutions for faster and lower-cost picking of parcels are the most important, and we have a selection guide for these types of packaging machines, so don’t hesitate to check it out.

Learn how to make a difference thanks to packaging

The satisfaction of the customer who receives your product is our goal, because their loyalty will depend on it. In order to draw up the “Packaging White Paper”, we have taken the following fundamental objectives into account

• Reinforce the customer experience by thinking about their comfort when opening the package, playing with personalisation and facilitating the return of goods.
• Enhance the environmental commitment: we can do this by using ecological alternatives in all the supports, whether in boxes, fillers or stickers, thus making it easier for the customer to recycle and giving more value to our brand.
