This is a packaging material for coated automotive exterior parts that require protection of the design surface. Conventional products use a fixing material made of chemical products attached to the cardboard and a plastic bag for protection of the coated surface.
Vibration during transportation caused scratches on the design surface, resulting in defective products, so we developed an all-corrugated cardboard packaging material that protects the product and eliminates plastic.
By inserting and securing cardboard on the backside of the product, it can be packed flat without touching the design surface.
The flattened design increases capacity and improves transportation efficiency.
Furthermore, it is a general-purpose specification that allows packaging of two part numbers, one for conventional products and the other for new products.
As a result of the improvement, packing time was reduced by 56% and transportation efficiency improved by 11%.
