We have a machine shop customer that produces a large, heavy item with a rigid surface. Like a lot of companies, this is one of many amazing and valuable products they create. But sadly, there was a time when there was only so much they could do to guard against damage in transit.<\/p>\n
This is one of the worst kinds of damage, in my opinion, because it creates such a gray area when something is scuffed or scratched. Is it the manufacturer\u2019s fault (our customer)? The distributor\u2019s? The delivery driver\u2019s? Perhaps it\u2019s the fault of their customer!<\/p>\n
Usually the item is returned, forcing vendors to sell the product at a markdown or worse, try and fix it on their own. This was causing our customer to lose time and money. Plus, such a practice undermined all the good things about their fantastic product line\u2026 no one trusted the products would actually arrive undamaged.<\/p>\n
So we offered a simple solution: polyethylene closed cell foam sheets and foam corners! The custom foam corners attach to each corner of the unit during transit.<\/p>\n
The polyethylene foam packaging works great. Our customer now wraps plastic over the closed cell foam corners, allowing the polyethylene foam to create a buffer against the unit. No longer does it scratch up against other units or walls in transit, thanks to a simple foam packing material solution.<\/p>\n
And no longer does our customer \u2013 or their vendors \u2013 continue to lose time and money. This simple and cost effective packing material solution is a short-term investment that is yielding great results for the long term!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
