Why to Custom-Engineer Returnable Plastic Containers

It’s been proven time and time again: returnable plastic containers are one of the most cost-effective solutions for transporting your products. Unlike single-use packaging, reusable packaging becomes more cost-effective every time you use it. Unlike wooden dunnage and pallets, plastic doesn’t rot or warp due to moisture. Unlike cardboard, plastic is robust and can handle comparatively huge amounts of weight. So, if these are the qualities of your standard returnable plastic containers, just think: what type of benefits can you expect from plastic packaging tailor-made for your products?

Well, as you might expect, custom reusable packaging can provide tremendous benefits in both the short and long term. In this month’s blog post, we’re discussing the benefits of custom returnable plastic containers.

Maximizing Products Shipped

One of the most compelling reasons to get custom plastic packaging made is to increase the number of products you can ship in every container. If you have an unwieldy, large, or delicate product, then you know that simply throwing it in an empty box isn’t the best way to make use of space. You’ll probably find pockets of air that, by cubic foot, take more space than one of the products you’re shipping. By getting custom designs for your containers, our engineers will make packaging that saves space and allows for more of your products to be shipped—and less air.

Keeping Your Products Safe

Another important reason to get custom packaging made for your products is to keep them safe during shipping. By shaping the container to the product, it becomes a simple task to keep them safe through whatever type of shipping that lies ahead. Whether your product is travelling by air, land, or sea, custom reusable packaging is one of the safest ways to go.

Easy Loading, Easy Unloading

Another significant benefit to custom packaging is that it can be made for easy loading and unloading of your products. By doing this, you can save employees’ time on the floor packing and unpacking your products.
