After our audit we discovered that one stretch wrapper was responsible for $10,000 a month in damage and wasted film. However, the plant manager\u2019s goal was entirely focused on shipping product per day. Once he had it on a pallet and on a truck the problem stopped!\u201d<\/h4><h6><strong>Kurt Riemenschneider, Highlight Industries<\/strong><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff67593 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ff67593\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6af8bc8\" data-id=\"6af8bc8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-759b0ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"759b0ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/universalpackaging.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/KBM_7138.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6961\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universalpackaging.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/KBM_7138.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/universalpackaging.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/KBM_7138-300x200.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e0894a3 elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e0894a3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-24258aa\" data-id=\"24258aa\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4aceee1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4aceee1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When a company wants to genuinely pursue sustainability targets, a shift to big-picture thinking is required.<\/p><p>Stepping back to look objectively, the bigger DC pack process will often reveal previously unseen challenge. When correctly assessed and actioned, there can be massive opportunities to make substantial progress beyond simply reducing plastic waste.<\/p><p>One such opportunity is product damage. By doing the groundwork to establish precisely how much wastage and damage is occurring with the current setup, a company can set achievable and realistic targets around reducing it. In the current climate, there\u2019s simply too much investment in transport costs (and too much carbon emission at stake) to send out poorly wrapped pallets.<\/p><p>Clearly, a myopic focus on cost-per-roll of stretch wrap is not helpful for making distribution more efficient. Regular containment testing allows companies to use the right kind of wrap and less of it, while reducing product damage.
