The Challenge

The Air Cleaner

A solution to reduce packaging cost and inventory space

Our client, a Canadian manufacturer of industrial air cleaners, came to us to upgrade their packaging. The product was heavy, shipped one to a pallet and required space for accessories. Though offering excellent protection, their boxes had high labour and material costs along with wasted floor and rack space.

We worked closely with the client to come up with a cost-effective solution that could be standardized for many of their products. The final package used die-cut polyethylene foam corners and a heavy duty double-wall corrugated box. This solution provided the protection required and solved the problem of space and assembly time.

The final packaging solution reduces overall packaging cost, helps reduce inventory, is not as labour intensive (and subsequently reduces our manufacturing time to produce quickly), saves the client floor and rack space, and will work with many different products. It’s a winning solution for both the client and Harwell.
