Poliboy success story, shelf-ready packaging
Clean - the Klingele combination concept
Poliboy success story, shelf-ready packaging
Klingele has been supplying Poliboy with shelf-ready packaging for transport and retail sales for many years. The corrugated boxes and lid packaging used were automated and ran on two machines, which could only process one of the two types of packaging at a time. This limited flexibility and cycle time!
Flexibility and speed
- Machine consultation for a new machine that can process different types of packaging
- Increasing flexibility
- Increase in speed
The Klingele packaging experts analysed the existing packaging and explored alternatives. The Klingele machine consultants took stock of the existing machines and premises.
Packaging optimisation
The tray-lid packaging was combined with wrap-around packaging instead of a corrugated box. The blank is moulded around the bottle and then glued. This automatically changed the packaging process - and paved the way for a new machine that masters this process.
Machine consultation
Selection of four suitable machine manufacturers who aimed to optimise the interaction between packaging and machine.
- Compact machine with a small footprint
- Low changeover costs
- Proximity of the manufacturer to the site
Advice on selecting the optimum combination of machine and packaging, as well as on implementation.
- Relief for the customer during research and selection
- Optimum combination of packaging and machine
- New machine concept ensures process reliability and system availability.
Klingele provided us with excellent support during this consultation process right up to the final selection of the machine manufacturer, which we then carried out. The Klingele team of consultants took a close look at our products and our processes in order to find the right solution for us. However, a major advantage for us was above all Klingele's close coordination with the machine manufacturers, which ultimately resulted in the optimum combination of packaging and machine. We would certainly not have realised this project so successfully ourselves; we benefited greatly from the market knowledge of Klingele and Reinhold Löw in particular. We relied on his expertise and recommendations, as well as those of his colleagues - and it paid off for us.
