Introduction of packaging improvement case using Naviace (Maruyama Manufacturing Co., Ltd.)

[Presenting case study materials] From wooden packaging to all cardboard packaging. Achieving efficiency through stacking and reduction of packaging materials!

We would like to introduce a case study on packaging improvements using reinforced cardboard "Navi Ace." Maruyama Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer that primarily produces and sells power sprayers. When exporting their "self-propelled remote-controlled power sprayer" to South Korea, we proposed packaging that allows for overseas transportation, contributing to efficiency and the achievement of SDGs. [Challenges] × Use of wood required fumigation treatment and disposal of industrial waste at the destination × Simple packaging in Japan made stacking impossible × Separate packaging of accessory parts posed risks of damage and loss during transportation In response, we proposed "all cardboard packaging." [Improvements] ◎ Eliminated wood by using Navi pallets with laminated materials to support products weighing 160 kg with wheels ◎ Achieved high-efficiency loading with strength that can withstand three layers of stacking ◎ Innovated the shape for securing products, reducing packaging materials by placing parts in dividers ◎ Enabled secure fixing with wheel stoppers with laminated materials, improving efficiency As a result of this initiative, we received the Large and Heavy Goods Packaging Division Award at the "Japan Packaging Contest 2020." *For more details, please refer to the materials. We are also offering a "case study collection" that introduces other improvement examples.
