SUCCESS STORIES
You Thought You Knew Die-Cutting. Think Again.
When a large RV supplier was moving from Europe to the United States, their packaging manufacturer found themselves in a dilemma of needing huge packaging parts. Who did they go to solve this packaging challenge?
This 75-year leader in the packaging industry — with nationwide reach — reached out to Pro-Form Custom Packaging.
Pro-Form Goes Above and Beyond
Pro-Form has worked with this packaging manufacturer for over 20 years providing design work, heavy-gauge thermoforming, kitting and assembly, and many custom packaging solutions. Pro-Form specializes in a range of packaging materials including:
-
Die-cut foams
-
Laminates
-
Wood corrugated for industrial products
When asked what’s special about Pro-Form, the packaging manufacturer’s (working for ther RV supplier) National Account Manager says, “They excel at custom work. Pro-Form will also consistently go above and beyond to deliver, no matter how out-of-the ordinary the ask. Andrew Nehrt, President of Pro-Form, has told me: ‘If you need us to move heaven and earth to make it happen, we will.’”
Pro-Form’s Rare Die-Cutting Capabilities
Pro-Form utilized a unique die-cutting machine to create the large packaging parts for the project. This machine runs parts up to 32” wide by over 200” long in a single pass.
Pro-Form produced multiple parts over 150” in length for the RV supplier. Only this type of machine can produce one-piece parts that long, there are also only three in the world — and Pro-Form owns two of them.
The bottom line for this customer is how far a partner will go to help them. B2B packaging isn’t always a major industry consideration, but low supplies or defective parts can shut down entire manufacturing operations. The result is hundreds of idle employees.
“I have mission-critical requirements, and I can always count on Pro-Form to come through for me,” adds the National Account Manager. “They’ve got reliable people and excellent capabilities to meet any need.”
