Online trade is booming
An increasing number of people and companies are conveniently ordering items over the internet, with straightforward delivery of the ordered items to their locations. The number of packages to be packed and transported daily to recipients by logistics service providers faces a yearly double-digit growth.
Customer’s purchasing behavior and expectations are changing because of the increasing number of online platforms. More and more crucial for the buying decisions are price, availability and delivery time. Customers order when they have a need.
Shorter delivery times, right up to same-day-delivery, the reduction of delivery costs and minimum order quantities are also reducing the average number of items per order. With the reduction of the number of items per order, more and more air is transported in the used standardized boxes.
Oversized boxes = Increased costs and challenges
The oversized boxes lead to challenges in the entire logistic chain from storage, sorting, transport to distribution. This causes increased costs because of storage space requirements and high need of transportation capacity.
For B2B shipments of accessories, spare parts, consumables, overnight deliveries are becoming more and more important. Required items need to be ready for dispatch, ex stock just in time.
