90% of all cardboard boxes are used only once. Box Latch presents an alternative.<\/p><\/div>\n

Box Latch Products<\/a> are a reusable alternative to tape, staples and bands that have traditionally been used to close cardboard boxes. James Wilson, chief executive and export officer at Box Latch Products<\/a>, said: \u201cWe have received incredible feedback from operations and supply chain managers who have implemented the Box Latch technology. They have seen reductions in material costs (corrugated box and tape expense) by anywhere from 10% to 90% following integration of our product into their supply chains.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Box Latch business strategy is a global one with particular emphasis on North American and European Union B2B manufacturing, fulfillment (pick and pack) and distribution centers. Box Latch Products have successfully been incorporated into closed loop systems, work-in-process (WIP) and parts inventory storage operations. Manufacturers and assemblers working within an integrated supply chain have also found great success with the adoption of Box Latch Products<\/a> when assembling partial components that are boxed and transported within a closed loop between different parts of the supply chain system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
