Challenge: High-Volume Automotive Parts Repacking for Just-in-Time Production

A Tier 1 automotive supplier required ongoing support for repacking automotive parts in large volumes, transferring components from disposable shipping containers into returnable dunnage. The goal was to ensure uninterrupted production while meeting exact automotive packaging design and labeling standards.

The repacked components needed careful handling, efficient staging, and delivery in truckload quantities according to strict schedules. The supplier searched for a trusted automotive repackaging company with the space, equipment, and experience to manage high-volume repackaging services while maintaining accuracy, traceability, and part protection throughout the workflow.

Key requirements included:

  • Handling of fragile or precision-machined parts
  • Conversion to returnable dunnage in exact configurations
  • Accurate repackaging services staged in truckload quantities
  • Clear, compliant labeling for downstream automation

Solution: Automotive Repacking Services Using Returnable Dunnage and Custom Workflow Design

Industrial Inspection Company provided a dedicated repacking solution for automotive parts packaging, built around space, layout, workflow, and attention to detail.

  • Parts were received from the original supplier in disposable, transit-optimized packaging.
  • Returnable dunnage provided by the end customer was used to repack the components in specific orientations to support automated handling on the production line.
  • A large, forklift-accessible workspace was used to stage, unpack, and repack high volumes of parts.
  • Repacking staff followed exact orientation and quantity requirements, with special attention to 1-for-1 conversions or adjusted counts as needed.
  • After repacking, parts were secured using stretch wrap or banding and labeled per customer specifications.
  • Final pallets were staged in truckload quantities and shipped based on the customer’s just-in-time production schedule.
