Reduce return rates

1. Our CAD department examine existing packaging to find weak spots and identify potential causes.
2. Our in-house paper laboratory carries out a series of tests to find out what the existing material specification is and if incumbent supplier is supplying agreed specification.
3. Once the results of paper tests are known, our CAD team decide whether existing designs with a material specification increase is fit for purpose or if a completely fresh approach is required. This decision is made by taking into account all the steps involved in problem 3: reduce costs by design.
4. The final solution or recommended solutions are then supplied for customer approval.
5. We recommend that the solution is transit trialled to fully test the improvement in spec or design is successful along its natural journey.
