I-Pack® Delivers Automated Packaging Performance for Inex Partners Oy

Solution

Inex partnered with SEE to enhance packaging automation, as part of its strategy to further improve efficiencies, customer satisfaction and capacity for managing sales peaks.

To achieve Inex’s goal, SEE specified its I-Pack® Void Reduction System. The automated solution has been specifically designed for high-volume E-Commerce fulfilment, where packaging efficiency, speed and protection are crucial.

I-Pack® technology has been developed to optimise fulfilment and packaging processes by automatically right sizing packaging. The automated packaging system calculates product dimensions to rightsize, fold, close and seal corrugated boxes according to the exact size of what is being packaged.

Unnecessary voids in boxes are eliminated, which reduces packaging material usage and overpackaging. As well as delivering cost savings on excessive packaging, this can also reduce transportation costs and carbon emissions, because more customer orders can be loaded per delivery vehicle.

The new solution produces high-quality, easy-to-open packages at high speed, and which can effectively deal with spikes in sales and customer orders.

“SEE’s automated packaging solution has enabled us
to double productivity in picking and packing and is a
great fit for how we work and achieving our goals.”
