Not every product or product combination suits machine-fed packing, there are many products which are more suited to our hand packing or hand assembly services.
Fragile or unusually shaped items are best handpicked and packed to keep them safe from damage. Hand packing is also cheaper for small runs, where the set-up of machinery doesn’t provide the best return on your investment.
The benefits of hand packing services in co-packing
- Safer when dealing with items which are delicate or otherwise unsuited to machine-wrapping.
- Better packing results for individual items or product bundles of an awkward shape and size.
- Simpler to place grouped items into particular order, by colour, size, importance or any other priority.
- Easy to add extra items such as tags, including to large machine-fed runs.
- More cost-effective and faster set-up for small packing runs.
Typical products suited to hand packing
- Gift box contents.
- Greetings cards, stationery and other printed materials.
- Mugs and other crockery.
- Promotional packs, particularly for use in small numbers, eg at exhibitions.
- Toiletry sets.
- Product test runs.
Over the years, we’ve collated, sorted, assembled, reconfigured and packed by hand a wonderful array of products for clients. A hand packing service gives you the freedom to create something completely bespoke and totally unique.
