Challenge: Increase packaging automation and quality
The current design needed expensive manual gluing because the format was not stable enough to be automated. The resulting quality didn’t meet Bomilla’s expectations and it made the entire production process unnecessarily long, expensive and with inconsistent quality.
DS Smith’s Approach: Better packaging design and superior materials
The R&D team from DS Smith in Kielce, Poland created a new design with an additional strip of board. This allowed the packaging to be glued automatically as part of the production process and resulted in a more consistent, higher quality packaging at a lower cost. Thanks the higher, more consistent quality, the packaging also looks better.
Results: Lower cost, increased efficiency, managed risk
- Lower production costs by moving to automated gluing
- Increase production capacity with faster, more automated packing process
- Reduced product damage with higher quality packaging
- Improved environmental performance by using less material
- Faster order fulfilment and increased customer satisfaction
