Background

One of the German honey brands came to us with the challenge of finding a reliable glass honey jar manufacturer to lower packaging costs without compromising on the image of their premium product. It came to Yeboda to buy 250ml glass honey jars and 500ml glass honey jars with classic hexagonal body, wide mouth, embossed logo and gold metal lids. The brand selected Yeboda because of its customization experience and knowledge of glass packaging solutions.

Challenges

  • Multiple jar sizes and packaging specifications resulting in high costs.
  • The amount of carton space led to inefficient pallet loading.
  • There was a higher unit cost for smaller orders with custom decoration.

Cause Analysis

We analyzed the designs of jars, packaging sizes and order requisition. We identified that this was due to the unnecessary size changes, inefficient carton designs and complicated decoration options, which were increasing the overall costs.

Solution

As a manufacturer of glass honey jars, Yeboda suggested the adoption of certain dimensions of the jars into the standard format, redesign of carton shape to optimize the utilization of pallets and to simplify the process of decorating the logo on the glass honey jars without changing the overall appearance of the brand.
