We
look at ALL of your packaging related costs.
AmeriGlobe's
system of cost-savings is designed to increase your savings by improving
your bulk bag package. Bulk Bags that look bad cost more money. You may have increased
damage intransit, extra labor righting bulk bags in the warehouse, higher
freight because you can not get the maximum weight in the truck or
container, or a host of other costs.
By looking at
all of the associated issues, we can at times save you MORE
money than you pay for your bulk bags. We can improve the way your bulk bags
look, fill, stack. ship and discharge.

Bags Designed on Price vs. Bags Designed to Perfection
|
Successful
Case Study
In this example,
a customer was not maximizing his containers. We saved money by
redesigning the bulk bag to allow them to buy less bags and ship less containers
while shipping the same volume. We also designed the bulk bag so that they
could ship in a 20' foot container instead of a 40' container.

The customer was
filling the bulk bags with 200 fewer pounds of product than optimum, they
were single stacking in 40' foot containers. The bulk bags had empty, wasted
space in them.

We
moved them to a bigger base diminsion, reduced the height, and added
our patented Load 'n' Lock Top®. This allowed them to put an extra
200 pounds in each bulk bag. The height reduction gained by using the Load
'n' Lock Top® allowed our customer to double stack in the container and
further lower cost by using a smaller container. The increased bag volume
allowed them to ship the same amount of product, but required them to
buy 10,000 fewer bags and pay for 500 fewer overseas containers.
