[Improvement Case] All Cardboard Packaging for Self-Propelled RC Sprayer

Reduction of packaging material CO2 emissions by 37% and transportation CO2 emissions by 30%! Introduction of examples that have made an impact on four items in the SDGs.

Conventional packaging uses wood, which requires fumigation treatment for quarantine during export, and also necessitates disposal as waste. By switching from wooden pallets to all-cardboard packaging using reinforced cardboard "Naviace," we maintain strength while reducing CO2 emissions from packaging materials. The frame allows for stacking, improving transportation and storage efficiency, which further reduces CO2 emissions. Additionally, we have achieved a reduction in packaging materials and simplification of operations, resulting in positive effects on four of the SDGs. 【Before improvements, we faced the following issues】 ■ The use of wood necessitated fumigation treatment, and at the destination, it required disposal as industrial waste. ■ Due to being a simple packaging solution, stacking was not possible, limiting storage and transportation to flat stacking only. ■ Parts were packaged separately and sent together, posing a risk of damage or loss of the separate packaging boxes during overseas transport. *For information on the effects and benefits after improvements, please refer to the PDF available for download.
