imPACKt

The main idea for this project was to standardize the box dimensions of the whole product portfolio to reduce complexity and total cost of ownership.

Initial State

Product dimensions result in bad box dimensions and bad palletizations.

Target

When defining ideal box dimensions, new products can be developed to fit in these boxes.

Step 1

Defining ideal box dimensions.

Step 2

Translate ideal box dimensions to article dimensions.  

Step 3

Map the entire product portfolio.

Results

Savings on development cost:

  • less diecut drawings
  • less palletstack drawings

Savings on material cost:

  • higher order quantities

Savings on transport cost:

  • more articles per contaiiner
  • more articles per pallet
