Design innovations enabling packaging efficiency

Design is the core of AION’s innovation. To improve packaging efficiency, operators must start at the source by innovating.

AION’s core principles for packaging efficiency

Every innovation draws on some combination of the following.

Packing efficiency

more goods, and more assets, per movement, through nesting, collapsing, and dimensional fit.

Durability

more trips per asset. Cost per trip falls as design life rises.

System fit

works with the racking, the automation, the wash line, the vehicle, and the pool it has to move through.

Light weighting

less material per asset, less weight on every trip.

Handling and ergonomics

fewer touches, lower lifting weight, less injury risk.

Second life

a captive waste stream becomes the input to the next asset.

Value focus in four layers

AION’s innovations focus on the following

Operational

optimised for efficient production, maximised load-factor utilisation, minimised handling & damages, longest asset life.

Financial

lower operation cost, disposal cost converted into asset value, additional capital avoided.

Enviromental

less virgin plastic used, less material wasted, fewer transport emissions per unit moved.

Strategic

compliance readiness built in, improving control and service quality, and generating additional capacity/business.
