Bespoke boxes are tailored to fit your products perfectly, which minimises material waste and reduces costs. Optimised packaging dimensions mean you can fit more boxes onto each pallet, significantly improving pallet utilisation and maximising space. This translates into fewer pallets per shipment, lowering shipping costs and the frequency of shipments required. Ultimately, using bespoke boxes not only cuts costs but also contributes to a more sustainable and streamlined packaging operation for your business.

Let’s dive into how we create such a big win…

YOUR COMPANY’S POTENTIAL SAVINGS AND BENEFITS!

 

So that’s 24 extra boxes / products, per pallet! More products on each pallet equals fewer pallets and fuller trucks. This company is saving money on the cost per box which means they can ship more products out, utilise improved space on their Euro pallet, AND record their packaging emissions as ZERO as the packaging will be fully carbon neutral if purchased from Sandland Packaging.

Increased Capacity: The customer can now fit 25% more products per truck. That’s 480 more products than before for each truck they send out. (Assuming each truck has 20 pallets)

Manufacturing Costs: The customer originally used to pay £1.20 per box and now they save 0.20p with a new price of just £1 per box! This means that the individual cost per box is cheaper, and they fit over 25% more boxes on a Euro Pallet.

Improved Efficiency: Fewer shipments required.

Environmental Impact: Less material used and fewer shipments reduces the carbon emissions.
