Co-packing services – preparing promotional sets, attaching samples, or repacking finished goods – are standard expectations of food and cosmetics industry clients towards logistics operators.
– Today, warehouse space and storage are merely the foundation of a range of services that also include packaging, printing, labeling, and complex reporting using IT systems integrated with client systems or operations performed directly using client management systems – explains Tomasz Garbarski, Regional Director for Central Poland at DSV Solutions.
In the Kampinos branch of DSV Solutions, in addition to traditional semi-automatic sealers, a fully automated wrapping machine has recently been put into operation. The device performs envelope-style wrapping for rectangular boxes. This is a visually attractive and increasingly popular way of securing goods such as cosmetics, teas, boxes of chocolates, or DVDs. Another acquisition by DSV is an automatic labeler, which, thanks to a conveyor belt feeder, precisely labels up to 100 packages per minute. Such efficiency allows for a significant reduction in order fulfillment time.
– We are investing in this type of equipment because customers are constantly looking for savings, both in terms of time and money – says Katarzyna Lewandowska, Project Specialist at DSV Solutions in Kampinos. – They want to order all services in one place. That is why our machinery park will soon be enriched with further devices: a shrink wrapper for bulk packaging and a laser printer for printing directly on packaging.
