The new PackOnTime 2box multi-format packaging system from Kern produces the packaging on-demand and with a perfect fit. Filling material is therefore no longer required.
Conserving resources is the order of the day. The booming online trade with its usually high volume of packaging material is particularly challenged, to find answers to the packaging waste that arises. With PackOnTime 2box, Kern wants to offer a solution that avoids unnecessary filling material. It ensures the smooth dispatch of a wide variety of items: The packaging is produced on-demand and custom-fit, making filling material superfluous.
The Dutch online printing company Reclameland has recently started using a PackOnTime 2box system. This has allowed the print shop to speed up its production process by 300 per cent. Previously, up to 2000 orders per day were processed; now up to 6000 orders can be packed daily.
With this ecological and economical step, Reclameland is focussing on sustainability and efficiency: PackOnTime 2box cuts the corrugated cardboard sheet to the required size. The cut sheets are then erected, glued and transported to the insertion station. In the next step, the items are inserted and at the end of the process, the system automatically glues the packaging and places the shipping labels. The result is packaging that is customised precisely to the dimensions of the items to be shipped.
PackOnTime 2box optimises shipping logistics
The Dutch print shop was founded in 2008 and has been number two on the market since 2015. Reclameland produces all of its print products in-house. „With the investment in the PackOnTime 2box the company optimises and automates its shipping logistics and thus meets customer expectations for speed, because with this packaging solution the goods“ journey is optimised in terms of time right from the start," says Kern GmbH Managing Director Rainer Rindfleisch.
