When labor is tight, packaging becomes the bottleneck. Slow manual tape jobs, inconsistent wrapping, and missing labels stall throughput and pile on delays—right when your team can least afford it.
The solution isn’t more labor.
It’s smarter systems.
At Skybox, we help lean teams ship on time by pairing the right machines with the right materials—and delivering the packaging you need, when you need it. No excess. No over-engineering. Just real momentum, built with:
- Purposeful automation
- Standardized supply menus
- Reliable replenishment
- Packaging systems that fit the way you work
Assess → Pilot → Standardize → Scale
No big-bang CapEx. Just fast, smart wins that build on each other.
- Assess your current line for repetitive, friction-heavy tasks.
- Pilot a focused cell (taper + wrapper + protective packaging equipment) with saved settings and matched materials.
- Standardize your material specs, box menus, quick guides, and PM routines.
- Scale across lines or locations with minimal training and maximum uptime.
5 Fast Upgrades That Free Up Labor
- Case sealing that eliminates rework
Semi- or fully-automatic carton sealers remove hand fatigue, improve consistency, and speed throughput.
Best for: teams with variable staffing, mixed runs, or high changeover environments.
- Wrapping that locks in integrity
Semi-auto and automatic stretch wrappers ensure repeatable containment force, reduce injuries, and cut film waste.
Best for: any line still hand-wrapping or chasing load stability.
- Right-sized boxes + simplified menus
Fewer SKUs means less searching and faster packouts. We’ll help you right-size box specs and introduce erectors where volume supports it.
Best for: high-mix product lines or operations new to standard work.
- Smarter void-fill + protection
Paper or air systems streamline in-box protection. Protective packaging keeps orders intact the first time.
Best for: ecomm, 3PLs, or variable-size shipments.
- Replenishment that runs itself
We supply tape, stretch, shrink, mailers, strapping, poly, foam, labels, chipboard—Everything You Need to Ship On Time. Add min/max planning for hands-off replenishment.
Best for: seasonal spikes, product launches, or fast-turn SKUs.
