Reduce Total Cost of Ownership

Our Systems Approach achieves the lowest total costs by making sure these three key elements of your packaging system work together:

pallet packaging and handling

1. Pallet

The smallest detail can make the difference between a successful pallet design and a costly mistake.

2. Packaging

Designing packaging elements independently curbs innovation and limits chances for exceptional savings.

3. Handling

Leaving equipment compatibility to chance opens the door for preventable mishaps and loss to happen.

Your Technical Control Center

Packaging specifications seem to be changing at an alarmingly fast pace. Keeping up is becoming just plain overwhelming. We can help.

The Nelson Technical Center has been assisting packaging engineers for decades. Reducing total cost of ownership with an eye towards sustainability is our core focus. We can help your company reduce damage, improve packaging or standardize pallets for improvements everyone in your supply chain will see.
