Many
years of experience have taught Ballabox that the best place to analyze
a customer’s needs is at the place the cartons are used. We have
extensive experience in machine filled applications and understand the
different needs of this versus hand-packing. Ballabox utilizes a wide
range of cutting knives, creasing rules and pre-breaking equipment to
serve its diverse customer base. Ballabox has implemented many
different methods of inventory management for its customers.
Consignment warehousing, customized spreadsheet applications for Vendor
Based Inventory Management and material resource planning have all been
utilized in the past.
Other
services Ballabox offers are Make and Hold Warehousing, Min-Max Vendor
Based Inventory Management, MRP Vendor Based Inventory Management,
Custom Packaging Design and CAD generated samples. |

Protoypes
Unlike
many folding carton manufacturers, Ballabox has a very diverse group of
customers. This leads to many different solutions involving the
carton’s design and the physical composition. We have often found that
caliper or substrate change can provide substantial cost reduction. The
only way to accomplish this is through prototype sampling and testing.
Ballabox
utilizes Cimex folding carton design software to provide accurate and
timely prototype construction.
Timely Quotations
Ballabox
should be able to provide quotations usually within a four-hour period
not inclusive of exact die and plate charges. Our E-Mail is a T1 based
system, which usually is monitored from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. We also can
get estimates on dies from our die manufacturer by electronic means as
well. We design the layout, E-Mail the CAD file and usually receive a
quote back within 6 hours. We use the same Cimex CAD software as our
die maker. This allows Ballabox to electronically transfer files to
expedite both quotes and orders. We hope to implement a similar system
with our printing plate maker. Regardless, unless unusual circumstances
occur, all quotes are handled within a 24-hour period.
Other
Services
Ballabox will be
willing to provide distinct case quantity and pallet design for
effective materials handling, as well as labeling that will provide all
desired information. We will also be able to implement a cost reduction
plan that will have a six-month working window for review. In addition
to folding cartons, Ballabox can
provide custom sheeting, inserts, layer boards and specific corrugated
containers in RSC, HSC and die cut configurations.
