Streamlined Packaging Delivers Immediate Value for Metal Bar Shipments
The Challenge
Certified Centerless Grinding ships high volumes of long, precision-ground metal bars every week—products that are heavy, awkward to handle, and demanding to protect. Their previous packaging setup, a cardboard box placed inside a wood crate, added unnecessary materials, labor, and freight costs, yet still left room for damage in transit.
The Solution
Efficiency
Removed the need for double boxing and simplified the entire process
Custom fit
Custom UCrate® solution built precisely to their specifications
Cost-Effective
Simplified solution reduced material, labor, and freight costs
Material
Eliminated the use of wood crates, creating a more sustainable paperboard solution
The Bottom Line
Since transitioning to UCrate®, Certified Centerless Grinding has significantly reduced material costs, lowered freight costs for their customers, and saved on labor thanks to a single box solution. Most importantly, they haven’t received a single customer complaint since the new packaging was introduced.
“Laminations has saved us time and money, and they will continue to be our go-to source for our packaging needs.” – Dave Wilson, Certified Centerless Grinding.
