Manufacturing

Working to optimize your productivity, increase your output, and protect your employees.

Packaging

Product packaging and protection needs are found throughout many manufacturing facilities. We find them used for temporary use in the manufacturing process, as well as for protection during shipment and storage of finished goods. Whether it is custom designed “primary” packaging that helps increase our client’s sales and customer experience, or providing “secondary” packaging that simply serves as protection in transit and storage, FlexPAC is ready to help you meet your goals and move your product.

Driving down costs that don’t add value to our client’s products and solving for those challenges is what occupies most of our time. In many cases, FlexPAC’s team has been able to uncover opportunities for savings and improvements in areas that our clients didn’t previously know existed.

Our Packaging department is here to help you improve your processes and protect your products through:

  • Decreased cost through package redesign
  • Supply chain optimization
  • Greater yield through the use of innovative products
  • Increase productivity through package line reconfiguration
  • Improved cost per load through line audits & evaluations
  • Aid in establishing current packaging operational costs
  • Improve image and brand reinforcement
  • Reduced damage and improved customer satisfaction

Facility Solutions

Industrial clients have a blended approach when it comes to facilities cleaning. Usually, the administrative area, public restrooms, plant restrooms, and cafeterias are contract cleaned. The plant floors and cleaning around the machinery/cells are the responsibility of in-house maintenance. We have a pool of qualified building service contractors with proven track records to exceed our industrial client’s needs.

Our facilities Solution Providers can also assess the needs of the plant cleanliness through product innovation and process improvement. We have partnered with world-class chemical and equipment suppliers to bring our industrial clients the latest innovations, products, and solutions on the market. By working closely with the building service contractor and the facilities management, we can provide substantial savings with consumables (paper, soap, and plastics). By developing a cohesive team, we are able to control the cost (inventory) and work on methods of further reduction.

Our Facility Solutions department will help you analyze and develop the best systems for your business by:

  • Facilities supply chain management
  • Writing “scope of work” for our industrial clients to get the best contractor for the best value
  • Facilities site survey – recommendations on cost reduction opportunities and plans
  • Level of Clean audit (LOC) – a comprehensive assessment of the cleanliness of the facility
  • Product consolidation and standardization with detailed SOPs
  • Vendor managed inventory
  • Customized 5-S for janitor’s closets and cribs

Safety

Today’s manufacturing environment seems to be in constant state of change from employment challenges to finding methods for preventing costly worker injuries. Often, the responsibility for keeping workplaces safe and free from recognized risks fall on one person to try and manage all the different facets of protecting people and the environment. In other cases, safety committees are developed to help manage the overall direction of the company’s safety and health program. FlexPAC offers assistance to all employers who need help with compliance and training initiatives. In addition, we have partnered with some of the best suppliers to be able to offer world-class solutions for the most difficult workplace hazards.

Our goals are simple: help clients reduce the likelihood an injury occurs and reduce the total spend for personal protective equipment (PPE) solutions. Often, the protection employees must wear to protect themselves from hazards is not comfortable and causes them difficulty in performing their job duties. FlexPAC offers PPE assessments that can provide a new perspective on how PPE solutions might change to truly move employers from a compliance mindset to an enlightenment attitude toward protection solutions.

Our Safety department revamps your manufacturing environment by conducting:

  • Safety management assistance
  • PPE site surveys – recommendations on cost and comfort improvements for employees
  • PPE reconditioning programs – maximizing the reuse potential of PPE and reduce impact on environment
  • Fall protection assessments and recommendations
  • Training courses and program development
  • Confined space entry assessments and training
  • Vendor managed inventory
  • Environmental impact solutions – ISO 14001 compliance assistance or audits
  • Industrial hygiene and indoor air quality (IAQ)
