2 Getting more from every product load. This is the Supply Change. The opportunity: More efficiency. Less waste. More speed. Less damage. More product. Less resources. More impact in-store. Less impact on the environment. When you work with CHEP, you ll find we have what it takes to make all that happen for your business and your supply chain. You ll have the distribution platforms, the quality, the supply and access to our broad array of supply chain solutions as well as our pragmatic, roll-up-your-sleeves know-how. Everything you need to get more from your product loads. To move them. Stack them. Store them. Ship them. Profit from them. Throughout your network and at retail. Everything you need for a better supply chain. One in which you make more money on every product load. One in which you better serve the world. A more efficient, profitable and sustainable product load. Together, we can make it happen. Profit and Planet is no longer a compromise. What we do: Since we were founded more than 60 years ago, we ve helped more companies move more goods, to more places, more efficiently and more sustainably than anyone else in the world. We do it by enabling supply chains to share and reuse our platforms. When our customers share and reuse platforms with others, the use of higher quality platforms becomes financially feasible. Higher quality platforms reduce product damage, increase product quality, carry more product per load, improve automated systems and reduce worker injury. By sharing and reusing the same standardised platforms, all parties within the supply chain are enabled to standardise their operations, processes and equipment. This standardisation is the mother of supply chain efficiency. Sharing and reusing platforms also enables our customers to reduce their platform inventories and the number of platforms they need to procure, manage and maintain. Less capital is expended. Less resources are consumed. When you outsource your platform operation to us, we handle just about everything for you. No longer will you need to invest your capital to own your own platforms or your energy and human resources to procure, transport, administer, repair and maintain your own proprietary platform pool. Outsourcing your platform operations also eliminates your platform risks, by removing your exposure to market supply and price fluctuation and ensuring consistency of supply and quality.

Fractional pallets also facilitate distribution of smaller loads to small store formats.

They also help reduce waste to landfills and reduce transportation costs and CO 2 emissions. IBCs IBCs offer a cost-effective, environmentally sustainable way to transport food-grade liquids.

5 How we ll work together: As a company at the heart of more supply chains, we understand what makes them work. We know how to find efficiencies. We know how to root out waste.

So you can better construct and protect your product loads, handle them more efficiently, reduce damage to them, transport them at lower costs and export them to anywhere in the world.
