Situation
A leading beverage manufacturer was looking to reduce product damage and improve load containment in its packaging processes while keeping sustainability goals in mind.
Action
Group O conducted an on-site SMART Audit®, identifying areas for improvement. Maximum load containment was achieved while using the least amount of material possible by incorporating high-performance materials from high-quality resins. This led directly to reducing stretch film spend while also achieving sustainability goals.
Results
By partnering with Group O, this client was able to eliminate damages, achieve optimal load containment, reduce annual stretch film spend, and make progress toward their sustainability goals.
In the first year of partnership with Group O the client saw a 12% reduction in annual stretch film spend overall. Additionally, we were able to reduce the amount of film used by 25%.
A year later, a follow-up audit led to a further annual reduction in stretch film spend by 10%.
What would a 12% reduction in stretch film costs look like for your organization? Reach out to a Group O SMART Audit® and sustainability specialist to set up an appointment to find out.
