Pallet Optimisation
As Fuel prices continue to rise distribution costs are representing a larger percentage of the total product cost.
One of the ways to mitigate these rising costs is to fully utilize pallet fill.
The CLF Packaging Optimisation Service can help determine how to maximize the primary and/or secondary packs on a pallet.
