Online shopping isn’t going away anytime soon. The sheer convenience of same-day shipping without ever having to leave the couch ensures it. However, those of us who can change online shipping and e-commerce for the better need to step up—and soon. Some may ask why we need to ask these tough internal questions rather than keep the conveyor belts running at warp-speed?

When it comes to packaging furniture, there’s a huge gap between the showroom and your living room. For every sectional, corner chair and end table that’s on display under enticing bright lights, there are two dozen items just like them sitting in the warehouse waiting to be ordered.

The iQ Series of custom box-making machines is mainly designed for e-commerce and light manufacturing. This On Demand Packaging machine has a small footprint and can be integrated into any warehouse space with no upfront capital equipment cost. Electrical modifications rarely need to be made due to the machine’s lower voltage requirements, making installation seamless and cost-efficient.

I recently developed something of a hot sauce addiction. It started with some basic hot wings from a local establishment, and then grew into ordering a bunch of specialty sauces online.

It’s called an assembly line for a reason. No matter which production task is going on inside your facility, chances are that a bunch of people are going to be involved in the preparation process. As an order makes its way from warehouse shelf to the hands of a transporter and finally to the consumer, a litany of processes unfold.

Electric vehicles do make an environmental difference. A 2015 study by the Natural Resources Defense Council confirms that fueling vehicles with electricity instead of fossil fuels can significantly reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (CHG) and other pollutants that threaten our environment and our health

Do you know just how much your business can save on by utilizing Packsize’s packaging design software? The largest companies worldwide including Staples have made the switch to using Packsize software for two simple reasons: They’ve created more time and space, resulting in more profitability.

After eyeing a product online, committing to a purchase and waiting patiently for its arrival, few things are more disappointing than discovering that the item was damaged during shipping. We understand that mistakes happen, but getting a refund or replacement can be a real hassle. Those with limited free time are even more disadvantaged.

Back in 2012, Packsize posted a blog post titled, “Do you need a Box Maker’s Certificate?” This article is to address how to get information about Box Maker’s Certificates, the requirements for having a certificate, and additional regulations relating to shipping fiberboard corrugated boxes.

Everybody has their reasons. Be it environmental concerns, sheer convenience or cutting-edge preferences, the way we get goods in the mail is changing and it’s for the best. We’re specifically talking about shipping here and it’s safe to say that the industry—like many other century-old traditions—is undergoing a much-needed modern revolution. One of the reasons for this shift is an on-demand service, which allows companies to design and produce custom corrugated boxes. The end result is a box that is so much more than just a box.

Customers want their products to arrive in one, reasonably sized box. Having a custom box ensures that this concern is addressed, as better-fitting boxes reduce the need for filler and in turn create a safer package. As a custom packaged box is smaller than the average corrugated cardboard package, there’s less waste for consumers to have to deal with —clearly a win-win for your business and its customers.

Why is corrugated cardboard the best packaging material? The Iroquois had a saying: “In every deliberation, we must consider the impact on the seventh generation…even if it requires having skin as thick as the bark of a pine.” This was called the Great Law of the Iroquois, and it’s something often adopted today to discuss sustainability.
