Reduced Inventory maximises both working capital and warehouse space.
With every company looking to maximise space, it is important to consider the costs associated with storing your packaging materials. You may struggle to find room for the large amounts of corrugated cardboard, paper, and plastic you use to package and ship materials.
Unfortunately, some companies feel they are forced to buy in bulk to reduce costs to a manageable level. Some are faced with long lead times and are therefore forced to carry large stock levels to cope with any sharp rises in demand. It also goes without saying, the more storage space you dedicate to packaging material, the less space you have for finished product.
Instead of shipping all of your corrugated cardboard and paper orders directly to you, Pitreavie will hold stock of all your packaging materials, ready to be called upon at a moment’s notice.
You might be concerned about cutting it too close and not having the packaging you need in time. If that’s the case,we can offer pre-scheduled or automated releases of packing materials based on your company’s historical data.
By taking a holistic approach to cost savings, our packaging experts will identify ways to improve your packaging process without compromising on quality.
