Daikin's 40-year challenge of "eliminating wood" has been solved with an all-cardboard solution! Our company has achieved what has been attempted many times before but never accomplished!
In the 2019 Japan Packaging Contest, we received the Japan Star Award "Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Manufacturing Industry Bureau Director Award"! We successfully transformed the wooden frame packaging used for heavy shipments at Daikin Industries into all cardboard! We achieved the long-standing challenge of "eliminating wood" that had persisted for 40 years! 【Before Improvement】 - All packaging used wood (fumigated products). - A dedicated craftsman was required for wooden frame assembly. - The aging of these dedicated craftsmen and the shortage of labor became a serious issue. 【Improvement Goals】 1. Make it a specification that anyone can handle. 2. Reduce the weight of wooden frame packaging. 3. Reduce total logistics costs. 【After Improvement】 1. All cardboard packaging (achieving ease of assembly, unpacking, and disposal). 2. Clear three-tier stacking. 3. Four-way entry pallets compatible with electric hand trucks. 【Improvement Effects】 Elimination of wood… 100% reduction Dedicated workers… 100% reduction Packaging time… 67% reduction Packaging material weight… 50% reduction Total cost… 20% reduction ⇒ For more details, please download the catalog.
