Case Study: Packaging World achieves supply chain savings and sustainability gains with Chainalytics

Redesigned blister brings benefits throughout supply chain

Packaging World needed help improving the supply chain efficiency of an eight-pack of men’s private-label razors for Energizer Holdings. Chainalytics was brought in to redesign the packaging, reducing excess air and the depth of draw on the PVC thermoform to cut costs and improve sustainability.

Chainalytics implemented a packaging redesign that delivered benefits across the supply chain. The results included an 86% increase in pallet density, a 61% improvement in shipping density per cubic foot, savings of 2,515 gallons of diesel and 56,333 pounds of CO2 emissions, and more than $200,000 in first-year cost savings on eight-count primary packaging.
