What really is the true cost of a paper roll? Allrol Solutions findings may help you in reaching your commercial and environmental decisions.
Cost and environmental benefits through yield management is the smart but simple way to provide savings for your business.
Our findings have identified that some paper roll products have 20% less paper than they should,either through design or by the use of low quality low cost papers and this can really add cost to your business and have a negative impact on the environment.
If you can achieve 20% more paper on each roll not only does the cost per metre of transaction generally reduce but a whole list of other benefits can be achieved:
* 20% more paper means 20% less rolls to purchase.
* 20% reduction in point of sale down time.
* 20% reduction in storage needs.
* 20% reduction in warehouse orders to assemble.
* 20% reduction in 'back door' activity.
* 20% reduction in purchase orders & invoices.
* 20% reduction in packaging waste obligations.
* 20% reduction in transport activity & asociated emissions.
If we take the example of a large retailer buying 250,000 rolls per annum in a standrd box size of 20 rolls (12,500 boxes) a 20% yield improvement provides a reduction of 2500 boxes or 18 full pallets!!
Whilst some roll suppliers seek to increase paper thickness Allrol are actively working to ensure maximum paper length.
