Like most, the wholesale industry is juggling the challenges an ongoing labour shortage presents with the provision of a quick and convenient service today’s consumer so readily expects.
Automated solutions can work wonders in the face of such challenges, replacing repetitive tasks where there is a shortage for labour and, in doing so, improve their efficiency and productivity.
Whether you require an entry-level or advanced system, Kite Packaging’s range of automated solutions cater to all needs and can help with optimising your business operations.
Kite’s semi-automatic carton sealer is a low-cost, entry-level system which secures packages ready for shipping and is intended for businesses with large daily throughputs. Coming with infeed and outfeed conveyors unlike similar products on the market, this sealer saves you the hassle of having to purchase these accessories separately.
Incorporating this sealer into your packing process will save significant manual labour which can then be channelled into other areas of your business where automation may not be possible.
This plug and play sealer is easy to set up, adjust and maintain, and can be moved to wherever sealing is taking place. Available at market-beating prices, it can be bought as part of a bundle including twelve or thirty-six rolls of discounted hotmelt machine tape.
Kite’s turntable pallet wrappers are another automated solution, including the Rotoplat, Ecoplat and Masterplat models, all of which wrap pallets in seconds and make easy work of irregular loads. Simply place a pallet onto the turntable using a forklift or pump truck, select your desired tension and speed and begin wrapping.
Designed for optimal efficiency, this range provides varying benefits depending on a business’s needs. While the Ecoplat models are designed to be economical, the Rotoplat models offer advanced options for those looking to upgrade their existing machinery. Masterplat models combine features of both, offering cost-effectivity and superior performance.
Switching from hand to machine wrapping creates time savings which can be applied elsewhere to increase productivity and efficiency in the business. Not to mention, pallet wrappers stretch films to their maximum tensile strength, providing a higher yield that reduces the overall cost of wrapping pallets.
By incorporating automation into your supply chain, not only can you address labour shortages and improve your service, you can also reduce your operating costs. To learn more about the products and services available at Kite Packaging, please visit www.kitepackaging.co.uk.
