En la planta de Mosbach (Alemania), Interroll produce diversos módulos que a menudo se envían en empaques sobre dimensionados con excesivo relleno de vacío. Esto provocaba un mayor riesgo de daños durante el transporte, sobre todo para los productos de vidrio frágiles. Esto, junto con la necesidad de reducir el desperdicio de materiales, llevó a Interroll a buscar una mejor solución de empaque. Su objetivo era desarrollar una solución de empaque eficiente y uniforme que aumentara la protección del producto, redujera en gran medida los residuos y minimizara la cantidad de devoluciones por daños.
Interroll Obrigheim decided to partner with Packsize to integrate a custom packaging solution. After careful planning and process adaptation, a Packsize EM7-35 was installed in August 2023. The EM7-35 allows packaging production to be tailored to perfectly fit the products being shipped. Along with the EM7, Interroll’s Packsize solution also includes an Auto Gluer and a strapping machine.
The switch to the EM7 led to an almost 60% reduction incorrugated board and material consumption at Interrol, plus optimization of the entire packaging process. Processing times were reduced and the packaging itself became more flexible, visually appealing, and functional. A key customer of Interroll praised the visible, marked improvements to the packaging.
The Packsize integration was a complete success for Interoll Obrigheim and resulted in significant optimization of the packaging and transport processes. The positive results have led Interroll to consider implementing Packsize technology into their other warehouses.
