Listen to Johan Faes' podcast on 4PP

In this podcast, Johan Faes elaborates on 4PP. It’s a term that’s not very well known yet but can bring companies a lot of profit.

Indeed, in most manufacturing companies, the packaging process is a blind spot. Executives often have no idea how much it costs and what the impact is on customer satisfaction and the CO2 footprint. All attention is focused on the design and production of high-end machinery and equipment, while packaging is often not even someone’s responsibility within the company.

Why Fourth Party Packaging?

In this podcast we take you through the idea of outsourcing your packaging management to a specialist who does have the expertise and focus. We call this with a fancy word Fourth Party Packaging or 4PP for short. A 4PP provider, as a supply chain director, can optimize your entire packaging supply chain and help you become fully circular.

The podcast can be listened to via Soundcloud and opens in a new window.

This is the second in the series of podcasts by Johan Faes. Also listen to his first podcast, “Packaging Management, What Is It Anyway?

During an initial consultation, our packaging experts will assess your specific needs. By discussing the requirements the packaging must meet, they can work with our engineers to develop a concept.

Ontwerp
Based on the concept, you’ll receive a tailored proposal. Thanks to our short lines of communication, we can easily make adjustments whenever necessary. Are you satisfied with the recommendation? Then we’ll move forward with developing a prototype.
