Reusable Plastic Containers Boost Efficiencies, Productivity & Quality

Corrugated Boxes can have the following limitations:

• They are not durable enough to be used as a reusable storage source.
•  They are not suitable for many applications, including heavy item storage.
• They can be easily crushed or deformed when stacked on top of each other.
• They are not water or weather resistant.

The use of Reusable Plastic Containers (RBC's) can Improve Your Transportation & Warehouse Operations Transportation - reusable plastic containers (RPC's) help improve transportation efficiencies by standardizing and creating more uniform load configurations, resulting in:

• Increased product quality - loads are more stable when sturdy, uniform plastic bins are used.
• Fewer trips and reduced fuel costs.
• Reduced labor

Warehouse - in the warehouse setting, plastic bins consolidate inventory, requiring less space and oversight.  Cardboard boxes and packaging clutter shop floors; companies create cleaner, tidier and safer environments when plastic bins are introduced. The result is a better ordered production and warehouse area, with:

• Improved inventory control.
• Better production flow.
• More efficient processes.

RPC's can be traceable and trackable by featuring:

• Label holders
• Label placards for easy removal of temporary labels
• Ability to use electronic tagging (RFID) devices.
