United States Postal Service
Business Challenge
The United States Postal Service (USPS) ships up to 21 truckloads per month to their distribution centers. USPS uses Federal Express to ship all of their priority cartons and wanted to reduce their freight costs with Federal Express.
Solution
Our company tested different liner board combinations and suggested moving from the current 33# inside and outside liners to the lighter 17# liner which would reduce the weight of the carton without changing the performance.
Results
We provided USPS with a light weight carton that transferred into reduced freight cost resulting in a $2 million dollar savings for USPS.
