Understanding the Value of Corrugated Connecting Clips
Packaging professionals often dismiss the use of connecting clips because of the “cost”. We understand the pressure to keep packaging costs to a minimum. If the scenarios below affect your packaging along the supply chain, our clips will save money, or help increase sales.
  • Strapping falls off due to expansion and contraction of moisture in corrugated
  • Product rework needed after packaging is complete
  • End of line packaging assembly process creating bottleneck
  • Damage to the outer packaging at destination requires inspection for acceptance
  • Product is bulky and difficult to unpack
  • Item inside needs repeated access along the supply chain
  • Customer unpacking experience results in bad reviews
