Repacking instead of rescheduling
A container reaches Europe in big bags, the customer needs 25 kg sacks. A batch cakes during the sea voyage. A remainder sits in a big bag and needs consolidating. These cases are routine – and they often decide whether a shipment moves on time or stands still for weeks.
We carry out this work in the warehouse where the goods already sit. That saves the transport leg to a separate contract filler and keeps the goods within one chain of responsibility.
What we actually do
- Big bag to big bag – consolidating remainders, switching to customer packaging, re-weighing
- Big bag to sack – filling into standard sack sizes via the repacking unit in Bobzin
- Breaking up caked material – via the breaking unit, instead of losing the batch
- Filling of liquids into the required container
- DINO silo filling for powders and granulates at both sites
- Palletising, wrapping and labelling – packaging material is held on site
Volumes, weights, evidence
Bobzin has a truck scale directly on the premises. Incoming and outgoing volumes can be weighed on site – without a detour to a public weighbridge and with directly attributable documentation.
For hazardous materials the rule is: repacking takes place within the approval held at the respective site. We clarify the details on the basis of the safety data sheet before any order is placed.
What we need for a quotation
Substance and safety data sheet, source and target packaging, total volume and time window. For dusty or moisture-sensitive materials it also helps to know how the goods arrive – loose, palletised or in a container.
Short and specific
Which repacking operations are possible?
Big bag to big bag, big bag to sack and the filling of liquids into the required container. A DINO silo system is additionally available for powders and granulates.
What happens to caked material?
A breaking unit is available at the Bobzin site to make caked material workable again. Whether this succeeds in an individual case depends on the material and the degree of caking.
Can repacked volumes be weighed?
Yes. Bobzin has a truck scale on the premises, so incoming and outgoing volumes can be weighed directly on site.
Are hazardous materials repacked as well?
Repacking takes place within the approval held at the respective site. For water-hazardous substances that is the Bobzin site. The safety data sheet is always the basis.
