If you’re still using Styrofoam packaging, there’s a meaningful opportunity to reduce both cost and complexity across your perishable fulfillment operation.
From inbound transportation and warehouse storage to material handling and pack-out, traditional hard foam coolers introduce inefficiencies that often go unnoticed — until they’re measured.
Our Chief Operating Officer, Luke Vaccaro, recently explored this shift in more detail, including how materials that were once considered the standard are now being reevaluated. His perspective was featured in Packaging Strategies — you can read the full article here.
Beyond operational costs, there’s also a customer experience consideration. Foam packaging creates a disposal challenge for the end consumer – your customer. And for subscription-based brands, that challenge repeats with every order.
Today’s alternatives offer comparable or better thermal performance, while also being easier to transport and store, more efficient to replenish and pack, and simpler for customers to recycle. The result is a more efficient operation and a cleaner end-to-end experience. And cost savings too.
If you’d like to talk about packaging alternatives and the cost benefits, both financial and reputational, related to them, then we’re here to help – just contact us. Let’s Talk!
