Case Study: Springpack achieves higher service levels and lower inventory with Slimstock’s Slim4

Improving sustainability through supply chain optimisation

Springpack, a leading packaging distributor, faced volatile market conditions during Covid-19 that made it difficult to keep inventory balanced while maintaining high service levels. Using Slimstock’s Slim4 platform, the team needed a better way to respond quickly to changing demand, reduce excess stock, and improve ordering decisions.

Slimstock’s Slim4 solution automated order recommendations and optimized container fill, helping Springpack plan more strategically across its supply chain. The results were strong: service levels improved from 91% to 96% on key product lines, stock turn rose to over 4.8, inventory was reduced by 9%, and external storage capacity fell by two-thirds. Slimstock also helped Springpack cut internal transfers by 80%, supporting its carbon-reduction goals.
