Optimizing packaging at QUNDIS: With corrugated board to the logistics revolution
The smart measuring devices from QUNDIS help to save energy. Thanks to cleverly optimized packaging, the company now saves time, costs and CO2 itself. Find out how simple corrugated board supports a vision.
Opportunities & Visions: QUNDIS Pushes Forward
QUNDIS and Model – two companies, one vision: Making the world a little bit more sustainable. The Erfurt-based company approached us with the desire for CO2-saving packaging. We saw an opportunity to revolutionize the entire packaging process. A simple cardboard box made of corrugated cardboard now saves QUNDIS 40% logistical effort and a lot of energy.
QUNDIS ' state-of-the-art metering technologies help people across Europe to use energy responsibly. So it's only logical to optimize your own packaging in an environmentally conscious way. Model is exactly the right partner for this. We look, listen and find a solution off the beaten track.
In concrete terms, this means one less complete work process, no more film and more space on the factory floor.
The task: optimising packaging – green and simple
The solution: corrugated board with an eye-opener effect
QUNDIS now packs its measuring instruments in just a few simple steps with just two cardboard elements – a die-cut and an erecting form. If the erecting mould is pressed into the die-cut blank, the new packaging unfolds by itself and is ready for filling.
As a result, the company saves space on the factory floor and all processes related to shrink technology. Because now packaging is done directly in production! And if necessary, the entire process can be outsourced. If a package falls on the floor, that's no problem – the springy padded cardboard reliably protects the heat cost allocators.
With the reduced packaging design, QUNDIS is already meeting the new legal requirements before high licensing costs for plastic are incurred. The optimized packaging also offers six revolutionary advantages over the previous solution.
Sustainable alliance
The partnership between QUNDIS and Model is an inspiring example of two companies with a shared vision as pioneers in the pursuit of sustainability. Together, we were able to prove that simple means often help to save a lot of CO2. In this way, we were able to revolutionize the entire packaging process with optimized packaging.
This collaboration shows that significant change is possible through innovative approaches and a willingness to leave traditional paths.
