Existing packaging optimization
Achieve maximum cost-effectiveness
According to the Joint Industry Unsaleables Report, improper packaging is responsible for a 2% loss in companies’ net sales. This loss originates in incorrect assessment of packaging needs, frequently resulting in under or over-packaging.
