Case Study Disclaimer: Privacy requirements and non-disclosure agreements are sacred at YFY Jupiter, so we are unable to share the details of the clients that we provide sustainable packaging solutions for. With that said, this collection of case studies will provide a summary of the positive impacts that YFY Jupiter can make in your packaging programs.
A Great Fit for Every Stapler.
Case Study: YFYJupiter helped a global office supplies retailer to reduce costs substantially. By completely redesigning its secondary packaging and integrating ‘shelf ready packaging’ for inbound receipt with their product manufacturers, the brand owner could make savings on corrugated material reduction, eliminating master carton prep associated with distribution center labor, and in addition make a significant contribution to the environmental impact.
To help “eliminate the concept of waste” … YFYJupiter helped design and implement packaging specifications for vendor compliance that reduced costs, climate change and optimized supply chain across 40+ distribution centers. Our technical team reviewed the whole value chain in order to achieve improvements and cost savings. The number of carton sizes was decreased from over 1000 box configurations to 3 which resulted in an optimized packaging fit for more office supply products. New carton assignment processes and guidelines were also created with improved packaging materials specified. This optimized the packaging and the overall supply chain.
The customer benefited from exceptional operational savings.
- Reduction in freight costs alone yielded savings of an impressive $1.5 million.
- The total potential in labor savings is >$7.3 million.
The direct savings from packaging were also substantial due to leveraging volumes and a change to better materials. Another factor contributing to savings was an increase in the reuse of inbound packaging for outbound use. This resulted in significant improvements of the company’s sustainability performance.
Extended Producer Responsibility Workshops.
Case Study: We recently hosted a crucial clinic on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation for one of the largest Arts and Crafts brands in the US, providing essential insights into compliance and fee avoidance strategies. This session was vital for understanding the complex requirements of EPR and its impact of packaging design.
By engaging directly with industry experts and gaining a comprehensive understanding of EPR obligations, our client is now better equipped to navigate compliance challenges, reduce potential fees, and implement effective, sustainable packaging solutions. This proactive approach ensures they remain ahead of regulatory changes and continue to lead in responsible business practices into 2025.
Distribution Center and Logistics Packaging Optimization.
Case Study: A well known outdoor apparel and products company approached us to solve issues and inefficiencies that they witnessed internally with their warehouse operations. Our solution provided them a new secondary packaging solution and improved pack-out procedure and a new master carton was created and implemented across their distribution centers.
Immediate wins:
- Net corrugated material savings (20%).
- Reduced handling by the distribution centers receiving teams (15%).
- Reduced time and effort to stage product (50%).
- Reduced product damages (5%).
- Standardized carton material dimensions for sourcing teams (100%).
- Simplified container loading for vendors (100%).
Cycling is a passion for us and so is its packaging.
Case Study: The cycling industry faced increasing pressure to enhance sustainability while delivering effective packaging solutions for bicycles. Our goal with our traditional and electric cycling clients is to optimize bicycle packaging to reduce environmental impact, improve functionality, and meet the high standards of brands sold through their e-commerce and outdoor retailers
The redesigned e-commerce packaging we created received the Sustainable Packaging Coalition Innovation Award for its outstanding contribution to sustainable packaging practices in the cycling industry. The recognition highlighted our ability to deliver impactful, plastic-free solutions that align with the values of leading brands.
Excellence in Sustainable Design and Packaging.
Case Study: An outdoor gear brand that we partnered with aimed to launch its new camp kitchen program in 2024 with a focus on sustainability. The challenge was to develop entirely new paper-based packaging that would align with their brand values. We conducted thorough testing to ensure that the packaging met performance standards and effectively protected the products during shipping and handling.
Outcome: The new paper-based packaging was successfully launched, receiving positive feedback from both customers and industry experts. The transition to paper-based packaging not only reinforced our client's commitment to sustainability but also enhanced the brand’s reputation for innovation and environmental responsibility.
Later in the year, they let us know that their innovative product ranges have been awarded the prestigious iF DESIGN AWARD. They were recognized for their excellence in design and packaging, the new product offerings showcased a commitment to enhancing performance outdoor gear with practical design. These awards highlight the brand’s dedication to quality and innovation in outdoor adventure equipment and we were very happy for them and proud of our collaboration in their packaging.
Sustainable Packaging Guidelines for a Media Giant.
Case Study: YFY Jupiter collaborated with a well known media giant to develop sustainability packaging guidelines that would elevate education and drive better communications across their product development teams to reach their corporate sustainability goals for 2025. As a result, we also created structural packaging guidelines for their distribution systems, to ensure that all products are packaged consistently and efficiently, while also meeting the safety, quality, and environmental requirements set forth by the company.
Lasting packaging partnerships built on success and excellence.
Case Study: YFY Jupiter has helped one of our longest packaging partners achieve its aspiration in high end electronics packaging for over two decades. Our packaging teams are dedicated to make their 2030 packaging goals possible and successful, Goals: for every product their customer buys, they will reuse or recycle an equivalent product. 100% of their packaging will be made from recycled or renewable material and more than half of their product content will be made from recycled or renewable material.
Focus points to achieve their goals:
- Reduce the environmental impact of their packaging operations.
- Drive social and environmental responsibility in the industry and our supply chain.
- Enable customers to reduce the environmental impact of their IT infrastructure .
- Promote technology’s role in addressing environmental challenges.
It’s got to be the shoes (and its packaging).
Case Study: An well known shoe brand sought to enhance the sustainability and functionality of their new outdoor running footwear packaging while maintaining the brand's premium image and ensuring product protection. Our designers and sustainable materials teams provided an optimized (one-piece) packaging solution that not only achieved a significant reduction in environmental impact but also enhanced the unboxing experience for customers. The project successfully combined aesthetics that aligned with their values and market positioning.
Packaging Goals:
- Eliminate excess material.
- Optimization of the overall structure.
- Differentiate from competitive packaging.
- Simplify the opening and improve unboxing.
- Educate for post-use recycling.
