  • The Challenge

    Standard totes just didn’t work for Amer Sports (Arc’teryx, Saloman, PeakPerformance, Atomic, Armada). What they needed was something different, something custom to their product to improve operation efficiencies in their warehouse. What they needed was an extra large automation tote, larger than anything on the market. When they went looking for something custom, they received a resounding no. Luckily, they found us.

    The Solution

    Solution-seeking is what we do, and when Arc’teryx came to us with an unsolvable problem, we said challenge accepted.

    • Our team developed containers fit to accommodate all of their packing, storing, and automation needs
    • The containers were tested and validated with KNAPP Automation
    • Our solution exceeded industry standards in every aspect
    • We saved Amer Sports $920,000 in freight costs alone through Innov8
  • The Challenge

    Savoye approached us to bid on a simple tray for automated beverage warehouse and distribution. The tray needed to be designed to hold products in the required dimensions for the system. Rather than keeping their request straight-forward, they asked if we could show them something more innovative, and since enhancing requests is what we do, so we got to work.

    The Solution

    Our team delivered a fully customized design that not only met the original specifications but included a custom internal bottom of the tray that would hold 750cc of liquid in case of breakage.

    • This adjustment allowed liquid to drain away from the other product and into the tray, containing any spillage
    • Additional damage to cartons was mitigated
    • Spillage onto the conveyor and shuttle systems in the warehouse was prevented
    • Both product and the automation system is now protected
