• Decreasing Product Loss, Damage, and Related Costs

  All types of fragile, sensitive, and perishable goods are susceptible to damage during shipping: pharmaceuticals, chemicals, electronics, artwork, medical devices, foods, beverages, and more. All it takes is a bump in the road or a moment of carelessness for a shipment to get hit, dropped, or upended — and ruined.

  Maybe you’ve already received customer complaints about damage. Or maybe you’re trying to prevent them. But how do you mitigate damage if you don’t know what is happening? Packing materials help, but they can only do so much. The key is to identify the weak link in your supply chain so you can get to the root of the problem. If you factor the cost of product damage into your cost of goods sold, minimizing damage will add money directly to your bottom line. Read on to learn how to do it.

• Monitoring Impact and Vibration to Protect Sophisticated Equipment in Operation

  Monitoring vibration, impact, and other environmental conditions is critical to the performance and safety of special equipment like power transformers, wind turbines, and oil platforms. Lots of people depend on this equipment for industrial, commercial, and residential purposes. You need to keep it running with minimal interruption in order to meet customer demand, but you can’t be there 24/7 to supervise it. Luckily, ShockWatch® monitors can. Read on to learn how.

• Supply Chain Management Systems That Improve Customer Satisfaction and Loyalty

  You do everything you can to ensure the quality of your product and accurate fulfillment of customer orders, but the moment that determines customer satisfaction is when they open the package. If your product travels any distance or sits on a shelf or in storage for any length of time before delivery, there’s a chance that something will happen to it that will end up disappointing your customer. Read on to learn how to minimize this chance with a supply chain management system.

• Cold Chain Packaging Solutions for Maximizing Shelf Life

  In the perishable products world, expiration dates rule. It’s a real balancing act to synch up production and delivery schedules so that your goods make it to your customers on time instead of ending up ruined. But all it takes is a sudden spike or dip in temperature to throw everything off balance. Read on to learn how to mitigate this risk in your cold chain.
