Learn how an optimized dunnage approach can drive operational efficiencies.
A leading global snack company was spending $1.6 million annually on dunnage airbags, relying on non-recyclable kraft paper materials that generated significant environmental waste. By implementing a more strategic selection of high-quality, cost-effective dunnage airbags, the company reduced its airbag expenditures to $400,000 annually while maintaining strong product integrity. Additionally, the transition to more sustainable materials eliminated 300 tons of waste per year.
