SALT LAKE CITY, May 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Every cost associated with outbound warehousing, order fulfillment, and transportation is driven by the cubic volume of the box used to package each product. Packsize International today announces the availability of a new White Paper titled "How Many Box Sizes Are Enough?" that makes the case for why minimizing outbound cubic volume is the key to managing these costs.

Packsize Executive VP and Chief Strategic Officer Ken Rohleder comments, "E-commerce customers have become hyper-sensitized to the environmental impact of their online buying choice. As such, the fulfillment industry must determine how to reduce the amount of air space in their packaging to minimize outbound cubic volume."

This efficient and cost-effective, just-in-time packaging system increases total savings by up to 20 percent. A leading sustainable business practice, Right-sized Packaging on Demand™ results in less waste, lower shipping costs, decreased damage rates, and increased customer satisfaction.
