Packaging Cost Savings: Down Gauge to Eco-Supreme Stretch Film

A customer based out of Charlotte, NC was buying 18” x 80 gauge hand applied stretch film to secure manufactured wire products to a pallet. They were unhappy with the performance and price of their current stretch film, so we came up with a better solution. We suggested a downgauge to our Eco-Supreme Stretch Film, which is much thinner, but stronger than the film they had been buying. The customer was reluctant to make the switch at first but was later convinced after an in-plant demonstration run at their Charlotte location by one of our sales representatives.

They were impressed by the performance of the Eco-Supreme, and they were amazed that we could save them nearly 40% per case of film. They were so happy with the solution that they convinced their other two plant locations of the benefits of this downgauged film. Together, all three locations ordered nine pallets of our Eco-Supreme Stretch Film and saved over $9,000 dollars on the cost of the first order. They later told us that they were highly disappointed that their current supplier could not offer them the same solution we were able to give them.
