Time is a precious resource ― once it’s spent, it’s gone for good. As Jim Rohn, American entrepreneur, author and motivational speaker, once said: “Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time.” Whereas case packing and wrapping equipment allows warehouses to get products out at a fast rate, it can save companies time and money as this equipment speeds up the entire process of packing up cases.
Along with rising costs, labor quality and availability is a “huge” concern for companies, says Richard Gardner, North America sales division manager at Polypack Inc., Pinellas Park, Fla. “Not knowing what the available labor market might be tomorrow makes it easier to justify the purchase of automated packaging equipment now more than ever.”
