CHAPTER 3 OUTER PACKAGING Poor modular adaptation
of outer packages Remember: The dimensions of the outer packages should be module-adapted. See chapter five Modular system. Risk: Poor modular adaptation results in a poor fill rate of roller containers and pallets, which in turn increases the risk of shrinkage and crushing, handling problems at the logistics stage and greater environmental impact. Unprotected products Remember: The outer packagage must be designed in such a way that it protects the consumer packagage all the way out to the store. Therefore, it should always be fitted with a lid or shrink wrap to keep the consumer packages in place. Risk: Without adequate protection, consumer packages may fall out during handling and risk being damaged by other products when loaded together on roller containers and pallets. Unprotected products can also cause problems in automated processes. 26
