The safe transit of goods is fundamental to the success of any manufacturer – but it is also one of its major costs.
There are many things to consider when it comes to selecting a packaging and transit solution that is both cost-effective and environmentally sustainable, while maintaining surety that your products will reach their destination safely and efficiently.
From an environmental perspective, pallets and packaging manufactured from responsibly sourced timber continues to offer the most eco-friendly option, generating a considerably smaller carbon footprint that other alternatives while also providing significant opportunities for reuse and recycling.
Increasingly we are working with our volume customers on a range of solutions, from creating closed pools to collecting their timber waste to recycle through our biomass plant, which is helping them to drive down cost.
Ensuring that your packaging is as efficient as possible is also fundamental to lowering transit costs and at Nicklin we use the latest cutting-edge technology so that the packaging solutions that we offer are fully optimised in terms of the materials that are used without compromising key factors such as flexibility and protection.
Through working closely with our customers, we can help them reduce the amount of packaging materials they need and the empty space within that packaging, lowering their transit costs at every stage of the process.
