Case Study: Märklin achieves near-zero transport damage with SSI Schaefer's customized blue boxes

Märklin - Customer Case Study

Märklin, a manufacturer of high-quality model trains, faced a significant challenge with products being damaged during transport between production stages. The company partnered with vendor SSI Schaefer to develop a custom solution that would protect its delicate and meticulously crafted items.

SSI Schaefer developed a unique blue box container system with a specialized slot and screwdriver fitting to securely hold the models during transportation. This solution reduced transport damage costs to almost zero. Following this success, SSI Schaefer created a second yellow box system for steam locomotives, demonstrating their commitment to providing pragmatic, tailor-made solutions for the customer.
