We found that by having a close look at the dimensions of our packaging and how items were stacked onto pallets and within containers, we were able to fit more onto pallets and more into containers. This resulted in a saving in transport costs and storage space required.

Sometimes, just by adjusting the way that packages are stacked onto pallets can make a difference.

Eliminating unnecessary packaging can also make a big difference particularly when cardboard is saved, as the cardboard manufacturing process uses both trees and a considerable amount of water.

A focus on optimising packaging can result in cost savings and be of significant benefit to the environment.
