Loveshaw's Trade-In Promotion Seals the Deal!
Little David Case Study
PRODUCT:
Legend Random / Semi-Automatic Random, Top and Bottom Case Sealer (Operator-Fed)
CASE PRESENTED:
We were invited by an authorized Little David® distributor, Associated Packaging - Tampa Florida to visit a manufacturer of electronic surge protectors to evaluate the benefits of a box taper. The manufacturer was interested in increasing production efficiencies and eliminating messy, water-activated tape. The facility was filling approximately 500 random size boxes per day.
The process for packing and sealing the box was a manual, three step sealing process:
- Employees hand erected boxes and applied water activated tape to the bottom
- Packed the box with the product and filled the case with dunnage
- Taped the top of the box
An Associated Packaging Representative evaluated the existing set-up and suggested a new streamlined layout for their packing area which incorporated Loveshaw’s Legend Random. After learning about the features of the machine and Loveshaw’s Trade-In Promotion, the deal was quickly finalized.
RESULTS:
The manufacturer and employees are very pleased with the new random top and bottom adhesive tape machine which resulted in:
- Reduced labor costs 40%
- Decreased material cost by 45%
- Eliminated the challenges associated with water activated tape
