Here at Amatech, we have made the transition from regular to returnable packaging as easy as possible. We offer a cost calculator for your convenience, just plug in your numbers and see the cost savings right before your eyes! You will find out that the money spent yearly on regular packaging may be lower than the initial cost to become returnable package ready. The reason for this is that returnable packaging has an initial expensive expense. This is because you are investing in returnable, reusable, sustainable packaging that typically gets you twenty more uses than regular packaging. Not only do you get to streamline your production line and save you money over time, you also get bragging rights about being environmentally “green”.

How Much Money are You Really Saving?

Customers experience between 40% and 70% savings on the overall cost when using returnable packaging. Amatech can design a package for you that you can put a part in and it will be protected-No more protective bagging per piece! On the line, workers can grab the part directly from the package without having the wasted time of opening and disposing of the content bag-No more extra labor expenditures! This is saving money on both the packaging and labor cost analysis realm. We can’t forget to mention the time spent actually assembling a regular package for your work line. Not only is that adding to the expenses, but you will also counter in safety protocols, too. The staples and splinters of regular packaging do pose the risk of injuring the operator AND damaging the contents!

Evaluate your Packaging

With Amatech’s Cost Saving Calculator it will give you an ROI if a company makes the returnable, reusable adaptation. The cost of adaptation is worth it. In adequate packaging can increase your shipping costs. When your packaging is not suited for your product you can be left with paying for dead weight. This can be an expensive endeavor that is taking the profit right out of your pockets. When evaluating your packaging, consider the three factors that will affect your packaging benefits the most: packaging life cycle, effectiveness and reusability.
