Step 1 - How do you pack now?
The first step to savings from stretch wrapping is to track how you wrap your pallets now. We do this in the following way. We go into your prosody and track a few things. First, do you pack manual or by machine? Second, what are the characteristics of your machine? Third, what thickness is the film you are using? Fourth, what is the stretchability of the film you are using? Fifth, what are the characteristics of the pallets you pack? Sixth, what are the characteristics of the goods that have been palletised and what are they packaged in? In addition to these questions, we find more information that helps us offer the optimal stretch film packaging option for your production.
Once we have found the necessary information, we proceed to an initial test. With this test, we find out your consumption rate per packed pallet. That is, we weigh how many grams of stretch film you use to wrap one of your pallets. Once you know how many grams you are using and what the price per kilogram of stretch film is, you can find out how much it costs you in money to wrap one of your pallets. You can find this by multiplying the weight of stretch film for a wrapped pallet by the price per pound of stretch.
The more grams of stretch you use to wrap a pallet, the lower the price you should get for the stretch film per kilogram. Conversely, the fewer grams of stretch you use to pack a pallet, the higher the price you can afford per pound of stretch.
Step 2 - What stretch film do we offer?
Step 3 - Cost analysis and offer
Once we’ve familiarised ourselves with your packaging needs, conducted an initial test with your film and a follow-up test with our recommended film, we move on to the most exciting step. In it, we provide you with a cost analysis of the tests and a price quote. In the analysis, we detail the test conditions, the achieved consumption rates in grams, and the achieved consumption rates in money per packed pallet. Also, based on the number of pallets packed per month or year, we include in the analysis information about the money you save when using our recommended stretch.
In addition to the cost analysis for the cost of stretch film, we also provide you with a price quote for the recommended film. In addition to the price per kilo, we also describe delivery terms and other partner details.
Step 4 - Launch our partnership
The final step in this process is the launch of our work together. Once we’ve run the tests and clarified all the conditions, you can start saving money on stretch wrapping.
