Next step toward sustainability and personalization with Jivaro Print of Savoy
Processed with VSCO with preset
Soon there will be a brand new packing machine in our warehouse.
From then on, our shipments will no longer be packed manually, but automatically.
Thanks to this fully automatic packing machine from Savoye, our packages will therefore be processed faster and more efficiently.
But there is much more than that.
We are also deploying Mobile Industrial Robots as cobots that work together with our order pickers in the context of automation.
Faster, more sustainable and personal
We previously announced that we would shift up a gear in 2021.
To (dramatically) increase our capacity in the future, we are partnering with Savoye Supply Chain Solutions.
Indeed, their Jivaro Print is exactly what we were looking for at ShopWeDo.
Both the ecological and personalization aspects are something we place great importance on in our e-fulfilment services.
For example, we mentioned in our sustainability charter that reducing the amount of air in each package is high on our priority list.
In fact, an average shipping box contains 40% air because boxes are not sized for their contents.
By adjusting each box height to its volume, packages become sturdier and require less paper as padding material.
It also reduces the carbon footprint because a van can store more packages.
Personalized boxes for every shop
By the way, automation does not have to come at the expense of personalization at all.
The new machine will enable us to personalize shipping boxes with a logo for our customers.
All this quickly and efficiently, without the customer having to supply his own boxes.
The unique added value of the Jivaro Print is the integrated lid printer which allows our customers’ shipping boxes to be personalized during the packaging process.
This gives each webshop its own unique box with logo, which ensures greater recognition among consumers and enhances the customer experience.
So thanks to this high-tech packaging machine, we will combine automation, personalization and sustainability.
