Hand Gluing uses a hot glue gun to hand glue corrugated cartons (most common). It is very effective for smaller runs where the machine set-up cost doesn't make sense. It is normally charged as a piece cost which saves the customer quite a bit of money. Hand gluing can also be done with specialty packaging options that a customer might have.

SHIPPING MANAGEMENT

Every customer will have their own requirements. Do they use Ship Station or some other form of software? How will they get orders to us? What are their requirements for acknowledgement of shipment on a daily basis? Do they ship UPS, Federal Express, USPS, DHL, and/or by truck.

INVENTORY

Depending on the customer, if we are warehousing their inventory we will give them a weekly spreadsheet of their inventory counts per item. If the job is a "one-off" meaning they send product in, we package all of it and ship it all out. We will then count the inventory when it is delivered to us, and once everything is packaged and ready to ship, there should not be a discrepancy in the piece count going back out the door.
