One source fits all
For many years, the whole area of packaging provision,
resource and supply didn’t even register on the radar
for most organizations when it came to identifying
ways to cut costs. In recent years, however, ‘minimum
stocking levels’ and ‘just in time’ deliveries have become
the key cost-saving catchphrases for modern industry.
And, as a result, procurement departments have begun
to get wise to the fact that a one-stop packaging
resource provider can deliver real dividends in terms
of significant efficiencies in cash flow, warehousing
requirement and stock flow with the result that the
quest to locate a suitable single source provider has
become one of the hottest topics of the day. As the
UK’s leading packaging resource solutions provider,
FDL Packaging Group of Haydock, Merseyside,
has unrivalled experience in single source packaging
supply, which means, of course, that the company is
well aware of all the cost advantages which the right
single source packaging solution can bring. And
FDL Packaging prides itself on its ability to understand,
and respond to the ebb and flow of its customers’
business. As FDL Packaging Marketing Director Dave
Scotting explains: “By their bulky nature, packaging
products such as drums, bottles and boxes can place
undue pressure on a company’s storage facilities and
can often require costly bespoke warehousing. At FDL
Packaging, however, by virtue of a profound
understanding of our customers’ needs, we can
establish stock control objectives, delivery schedules
and ordering systems whereby we can source and
supply the precise packaging requirement needed on

JohnsonDiversey Puts
Trust In Rieke RS3 Dispenser
JohnsonDiversey UK has turned to Rieke Dispensing for the hygienic,
accurate and reliable dispensing of their Triple C system, a range of
hospital specific solutions under the company’s Soft Care brand. The Soft
Care Triple C system utilises four great formulations, combined with Rieke
dispensing solutions, to offer products designed to clean and care for skin,
and control the spread of infection. JohnsonDiversey required a robust
dispensing pump that could cope with regular usage while delivering a
consistent dose. Crucially, the pump needed to offer a non-metal contact
construction to avoid the risk of reaction with alcohol. Regular supplier
Rieke proposed the use of its RS3 pump, which is suitable for a variety of
different viscosities. It can be locked down when not in use to prevent
waste, and is also 100% shower proof.
