Food processing businesses that use tins and cans to hold their products have many things to consider when they are putting a new range together which will require widescale distribution. First, it is wise to do plenty of research to confirm whether the new item will be popular with customers and therefore increase profits. How long it lasts before it must be eaten should also be considered.Â
Getting the design and marketing teams involved is important so that an advertising campaign can be formulated aimed at the right target audience, while a snazzy label can make a difference when it is placed on supermarket shelves. Appearances count for a lot, with something eye-catching more chance of attracting a customer than a plan label. To ensure the tins look at their best they should be dispatched after a pallet wrapper has gone to work.Â
The factory where the food is processed will want to work to tight deadlines and be as efficient in its operations as possible. That is made easier when they employ a pallet wrapper rather than trying to put a film around tins that are uniformly stacked high. A wrapper is a great tool and smart investment as it provides consistency time after time, meaning a guarantee that the same number of cans will be on each pallet for delivery meaning customer satisfaction at the other end.
Any business involved in food processing wants to look professional right from the way that employees are used with uniforms right through to the condition in which their products are sent out. A pallet that arrives at the other end looking like a mess that might have employed strapping alone to keep goods in place forms a poor impression. If they cannot be bothered to dispatch their items with care and attention it will make those who handle them wonder whether they are bothered about what is inside the tins which may have been counted by machine vision systems.Â
Employee safety is also paramount along with high standards of hygiene. Rather than manhandling the tins on a pallet and hoping to wrap them correctly, it makes far more sense to use a machine to do the work, thus avoiding the risk of injury, once an operative has received simple training. The goods will be dispatched in a clean condition with less chance of any damage being incurred so that they look great when placed on supermarket shelves.
The products, which will have the correct labelling to satisfy the requirements of the food standards and safety legislation will soon be ready to be dispatched. Huge amounts of time and resources are saved by the far more reliable method which has load integrity as well as the cash savings that are made as little film is wasted compared to when used in alternative methods.Â
Any food processing factory should use pallet wrappers which ensure that goods are dispatched safely, and consistently to avoid damage which means their goods arrive at supermarkets in pristine condition.Â
