Supporting businesses across Associated British Foods

Lindum already supports British Sugar / Silver Spoon, Allied Mills and Allinson’s with transit packaging supply, technical support and ongoing improvement.

We are now looking to speak with other ABF sites where there may be an opportunity to improve pallet wrapping, pallet stability or wider transit packaging.

What Silver Spoon says

 

Alex Pinfield

Material Planner, Silver Spoon Bardney

“Lindum have now been supplying Bardney for the last few years and we as a site have always experienced fantastic service from them. Lindum are always looking for new ways they can better our supply chain, whether that be through cost saving, improved products, or any other assistance they can offer. Their expertise in their sector is fantastic, and a real help when new challenges arise. Their customer services team have always gone out of their way to assist with any issues, and their top priority has always been their customer satisfaction. Thank you Lindum.”

Where could your site improve?

Pallet Stability

Pallet stability

If pallets move, lean, deform or fail during transport, adding more packaging is not always the answer.

We measure the current pallet, identify where movement begins and use controlled testing to understand the root cause before recommending a change.

The aim is to develop the right complete packaging solution and prove the improvement before wider rollout.

Machine film optimization

Machine film optimisation

Roll price alone does not show what pallet wrapping is really costing.

We look at film use, cost per pallet, wrap consistency and machine performance to establish a clear baseline.

From there, we can trial the right combination of film, wrapper settings and process controls, measure the result and maintain the agreed standard over time.

Measurement, testing and control

Where a project needs more than a straightforward product trial, Lindum can bring the testing and measurement capability directly to site.

Kontrol40

Kontrol4.0

Retrofit monitoring for existing pallet wrappers, providing visibility of film use, cost per pallet, wrap consistency and machine performance.


Mobile Pallet Stability Test Lab

Controlled on-site pallet stability testing to show how the load moves, identify the root cause and re-test improvements.


Formulation Truck

Formulation Truck

Trial different films and wrapper settings on your real pallets without using the live production line for experimentation.


The aim is not to add products you do not need. It is to understand what you already use and identify where a better specification, more reliable supply or sensible consolidation could improve the operation.

Start with your site

You do not need to begin with a supplier change, product trial or major improvement project.

A Lindum specialist can visit your site to review the current pallet wrapping and transit packaging process, understand any problems or targets and identify whether there are worthwhile areas to investigate.

If there is something worth improving, we will agree the right next step. If there is not, we will say so.
